Overview

In a world obsessed with extraordinary achievements, former Secret Service agent turned award-winning author C.E. Albanese reveals the most profound heroism in the smallest acts of faith. This collection of ten standalone stories explores what happens when ordinary people face impossible choices and choose love anyway. These aren't tales of miracles or martyrdom. They're stories of first responders, teachers, caregivers-everyday heroes who discover that sainthood isn't reserved for stained glass windows. Meet Kim, holding divorce papers for her addicted husband while remembering her grandmother's prayers. Sam, an angry teenager drowning in grief until a teacher sees past his rage. Father Joe, choosing between World Series tickets and a dying stranger's last rites. Each story stands alone, perfect for brief reading sessions or book club discussions. Drawing inspiration from Catholic tradition while speaking to universal human experiences, Everyday Saints bridges ancient wisdom and modern struggles. Each story pairs with historical context about its patron saint, making this accessible to readers of any faith or none. This isn't a book about perfect people or easy answers. This book explores the courage to light one candle in the darkness, to share half your coat on a cold day, to believe that small acts of love transform entire communities. Perfect for: Lenten study groups, confirmation gifts, or anyone navigating difficult times. Ideal for readers returning to faith, healthcare workers seeking meaning in daily service, or those wondering if their small contributions matter. Everyday Saints offers a resounding yes and shows exactly how ordinary people become extraordinary through simple faithfulness, one small act at a time.
