Holy Helpers in Everyday Life

Concrete help from heaven.

People often turn to specific helpers from heaven with their everyday problems. Why do we still need saints today? Do these intercessors also help with modern problems such as air travel, television, mobile phones or the Internet? Immerse yourself in the world of sought-after saints. Get to know their stories, attributes and areas of responsibility.

Who actually protects you in everyday life? In a world full of deadlines, push notifications and spontaneous adventures we need new forms of support. The exhibition "Holy Helpers in Everyday Life" takes you on a surprising journey through unusual areas of protection and their helpers. Get to know the saints who deal with dangers such as fire or floods, the world of work, school, the internet and television, environmental protection or travel. Who helps you with your daily challenges on the internet?

Here you will meet saints who not only represent classic concerns, but everything that shapes our modern life today: secure connections instead of lost data, meaningful work instead of burnout, social justice instead of inequality. Which saints are responsible for pupils and students?

Learn with exciting stories about extraordinary people and their path to role model, holiness and intercessor saints of the present. Discover which saints could accompany you in your everyday life. Perhaps you will find exactly the patron saint you never knew you needed in the exhibition at the Diözesanmuseum Graz.
