The saint I choose to pray to and imitate and whose name I have chosen for the Sacrament of Confirmation is St. Sebastian and his feast day is January 20th.

St. Sebastian had many virtues throughout his life. One example of a virtue that he had was caring for others.

One way he did this was by respecting everyone even if they were different, like the Roman soldiers, and was killed for doing what was right even if it wasn’t right in other’s minds. He preached just as Jesus did and helped many men and woman convert to be Christians and follow Jesus’ example and even St. Sebastian’s example.
I could follow St. Sebastian is a lot of different ways. For instance, I could stand up for what is right in my mind even if it isn’t what other might think of it. This especially important because it would help me feel a lot better that I did what was right, and it will build self-confidence for my life. Another way I could follow St. Sebastian is by living how he and Jesus lived and that is by being very kind and respectful to everybody around me, even if they are being rude to me or anybody else. This is very important because it helps me become a better person towards others and then others will respect me back. One more way I could be like St. Sebastian is becoming a leader towards other people and
