Life

Saint Lucy was a young Christian woman from Syracuse, Sicily, martyred during the Diocletian persecution around 304 AD. Having consecrated her virginity to God, she distributed her dowry to the poor and was denounced to the authorities. Her name means “light,” and she is invoked as the patroness of the blind and those with eye troubles.
