Short Biography:
Born in the 3rd century in Syracuse, Sicily, St. Lucy consecrated her virginity to Christ and gave her dowry to the poor. When a suitor betrayed her to the Roman authorities for her Christian faith, she faced brutal persecution. Tradition holds that her eyes were gouged out—yet miraculously restored before her death, a testament to the spiritual light she bore.

Martyred during the Diocletianic Persecution around 304 AD, Lucy’s name means “light,” and she has since become the patron saint of the blind and those who suffer in darkness—spiritual or physical.
