Who is the Patron Saint of Conversion?
Pretty much just what the questions asks, I want to convert my boyfriend to Catholicism, but I know I can't force him. He's in one of those weird religions that thinks Catholics are the most evil thing on earth even though he doesn't. But I want to get him away from it because I'm afraid of the man who runs it, he's telling him all these weird things about Catholicism when he doesn't know anything.
Sorry, rambled.
But does anyone know of a saint for conversion?

Oh I think the Blessed Mother is the one to turn to for this. There have been so many miracles reported for this type of thing with her it's not funny.

St. Francis de Sales. His book "Introduction to the Devout Life" revolutionized my walk with God. Kindness, realism and understanding just flow off the page. When I read that besides sin, anxiety is the worst evil that can befall a soul, it really struck me as never before that God did not want me to be the fretful, worried person that I was. And God started working from there. He's given me so much peace, and a passion for holiness. Also St. Francis de Sales was the bishop of Geneva during the Reformation, and I used to attend a Calvinist church in Geneva when I was a kid. I believe his prayers helped me through my conversion.

For fallen-away Catholics and Non-Catholics I use this prayer:
Father, We abandon into Your Hands all those who are away from the Church, and all those separated from Your true Church; Do with them what You will, for we know You are a merciful God. Whatever You do, we thank You. Make each of us ready for all that You have for us, to accept all that You desire in us. Let only Your will be done in us and in all your creatures -- We wish no more than this O Lord. Into Your hands we commend the souls of the wayward and the separated from Your Church; We offer them to You with all the love of our hearts; For we love You, Lord, and we so need to give ourselves, to surrender ourselves, into Your hands without reserve and with boundless confidence, for You are our Father. Amen.
THOMAS the Apostle

hmm...St. Monica prayed for many years for the conversion of her son...who was a very bad boy...he became St. Augustine, one of the most loved Doctors of the Church.
One of my favorite quotes from Augustine prior to his conversion..." Lord, grant me chastity...but not yet..."

I have never heard of anyone who wanted to be converted to Catholicism. It's usually the other way around!........
