As interest was expressed in having our own Catholic Game Show I thought I'd start.
My mother has gifted me hundreds of game show questions she has compiled.
I'll post a question and roll onto the next question when answered correctly. If you can't guess by 12 hours I may take pity.
Playing Now:
I'll start with an easier one.
Question 1
What two angels are depicted in art on either side of "Our Lady of Perpetual Succour?"

This is so fun, Erin! How many of these do you have? Do you have them in a word document or anything that you could share? (after we've had fun with them here, of course ).
I do have a deck of playing cards that we inherited from dh's grandfather which have questions on them, but I don't recall them being as fun as these!

Love this!!! I'm also going with St. Sebastian for Jenn's question.
In our homily a few months ago, our priest said that St. Francis and St. Padre Pio were the only people ever blessed with stigmata, but I think Catherine of Sienna also had stigmata- it was just invisible, right? Know of anyone else? (As long as we're on saint trivia and all)
I would also love to have a copy of these if you could! Wonder if you could arrange them into categories like Jeopardy or something?

I think your priest was mistaken.

Lindsay and Lacy
I have thousands of questions typed up in a binder, before the days of computers. Already many are sorted into categories, it would be a HUGE job to re-type but I am happy to share (Mum would be thrilled to think people are using her work), if you can think of an easy way. Perhaps scanning? I don't know much about that though, how would it look?
Jenn,
I won't post another question yet as I don't know if the correct answer has been selected.

Of course! You and Nancy had this correct. Of course someone from Britain would know this right off.
Here's another I recently found out:
Who is the protomartyr of North America? And what religious order did he belong?
Great stuff, Erin! You have a goldmine!
