No saints, no priests, no Mary. But there are many intercessors, like St. Paul, who said that he intercedes with his prayers. And like friends who pray for you, who intercede on your behalf, in imitation of St. Paul.

That whole 'absent from the body, present with the Lord' thing passed them by. If I ask you to pray for me, that's ok because you're still in the flesh. However, if you're actually present and living with the Lord, you'll no longer be able to intercede for me. Odd.
