Saints for All Occassions

2008 Patron Saint Action Figurines

We all need additional help from time to time and thanks to Archie McPhee there is now a Patron Saint (and matching action figure) for almost every occasion.

For example Saint Anthony, the Patron Saint of Bacon, comes with a Prayer to Assist with the Enjoyment of Quality Bacon. GENIUS!

Other examples are St Gertrude for Waiters and Waitresses and St Joseph for Real Estate and saints for lost objects, business people, dogs, cats and television to name but a few.
