Pray to who??

I know some pray to saints, instead of God, but I checked; Francis Xavier Seelos is not even a saint.

That said..... I hope and pray (to God) that Addie Ruth Halbin will be blessed by our Father.

Isn't he one of the security guys on the Jerry Springer show?

He's not a saint, but he's a Blessed, and his cause for canonization is open.

Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos, C.Ss.R.

Often the faithful will pray specifically that a person whose cause is open will intercede to heal one of their loved ones, because 2 miracles are necessary for canonization. There is one miracle attributed to Bl. Fr. Seelos' intercession already under investigation.
