I saw a young Catholic Youtuber with less than 700 subscribers.
She had a video that said “Want more friends?”
And then she pointed at the statues of the saints.
I grinned.
I agree!
These saints cannot disappoint us.
They are already in heaven!
They cannot sin!
They would be perfect intercessors.
Intercessors?
“Asking favors from us to Jesus.”
“Sitting with us on the pew and joining us in prayer.”
In the same way people come to ME and ask ME to pray for them.
Some of you ACTUALLY DO REQUEST THAT:
You email or tell me to pray for you.
That is what intercession means:
James 5:16 says:
“Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.“
“Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.”— Galatians 6:2
OBJECTIVE YOUR HONOR!
“But the only mediator (notice the new word?) between man and God is Christ?!How can we pray for one another??”
That’s because you used a new word “mediator“.
Galatians and James ain’t talking about mediation.
They’re talking about (tadahh!) “Praying for one another.”
Besides it’s silly to think that:
“Jesus is the only mediator between man and Jesus, eh?”
Now that’s clear… let’s find more friends..
PERFECT FRIENDS?
Saints would be perfect friends for us.
In a world where where we’re struggling and failing to find “Good friends”.
Good friends are available to us, for free!
No commutes, lunch outs, libre etc needed.
NOT FOR YOU?
You might say “I already have a lot of friends.”
Then maybe your kids or children WANT BETTER friends?
Friends who don’t suffer from mental health issues?
Friends who have overcome vice and know how to live with virtues?
Maybe your spouse needs better non-gossiping friends?
Spouse friends who don’t back stab?
SO HOW?
How to start this saint friendship journey?
STEP ONE: Ask for grace to meet new saints.
STEP TWO: You learn more about their lives.
How?
You can use these AI-generated VIDEOS I made for you.
Here’s one video I maid below -on the patron saint of Domestic Helpers.
I used at least three diff AI VIDEO tools to make these SAINT STORIES VIDEOS.
My purpose is —
A) Give Catholic children new stories/people to emulate.
B) Give myself more knowledge about little known saints
–
C) Give Catholic parents something to show their kids as alternative to mainstream junk media/halloween junk/disney junk.
So… Here are brand new mini-Saint story Videos I made for you.
WHAT MAKES THESE VIDEOS DIFFERENT?
These Saint Stories are sourced from original (100+ years in many cases) documents + biographies.
So they’re not rehashed from other videos and kids books.
And YES – I USED AI TO MAKE THESE.
But I didn’t ask AI for the stories.
AI will invent/fake stories of the saints – all the time.
LET ME PROVE TO YOU
For example, here’s what CHATGPT literally told me about
St Bartolo Longo (Canonized Oct 2025)
“Jomar Asked:
Tell me about bartolo longo. a story
ChatGPT said:
Bartolo Longo (1841–1926) was an Italian lawyer who went from being a priest of Satan to a devoted servant of the Virgin Mary — one of the most dramatic conversions in Catholic history.
Bartolo once wrote:
“Whoever spreads the Rosary is saved!”
and
“I, a former priest of Satan, am now a servant of Mary. My life proves that no one is so far gone that the Rosary cannot bring them home.”
Now, this Saint was not a satanic priest.
At least not documented.
But Chatgpt says he is.
That’s because outside websites say he is a Satanic Priest.
He’s not.
In making these scripts, I bypassed AI and used saint’s original works.
So presenting one of the many videos I made about Bartolo Longo, the not-ex-satanist priest.
Here are the videos you can now show your kids and even adults to get to know MORE FRIENDS.

HOW TO USE THESE VIDEOS
Don’t just watch.
Watch with family.
After watching, ask each other –
WHAT DID YOU GET from that?
What do you remember from it?
What virtue was there?
What’s your take on that?
Is it all impossible for you?
Can you not relate because you weren’t a slave girl?
Or a priest? Or a succesful lawyer? or ___excuse?
Then sleep.
Watch another tomorrow – with family!
Or next week.
Watch – talk.
That’s how you start Educating Your Family about new friends…the saints!
iIt’s your turn to INCREASE!
