St. Rose was a beautiful young girl that had a strong relationship with God. She was very beautiful and her parents wanted her to wear fine clothes, have food fit for the rich, and they wanted her to marry a young, handsome, rich man. St. Rose refused all of these things, she wore ragged clothes, hardly ate, and she turned down all of the men that proposed to her. She's my favorite saint because she did not let the people around her stop her from always praying to God and not letting them get in the way of her worship. I also like the fact that she stood up for what ahe believed in and that she died a martyr because she would not give up her faith in God. She would do anything to destroy her beauty so she could focus on what God had to say. That is why St. Rose of Lima is my favorite saint.
