Santa Lucia was born in Siracusa, Sicily at the end of the 3rd century CE. She was killed in 304 CE by Roman soldiers because she practiced Christianity when it was illegal. She stood strong in her faith, so strong that oxen could not move her. Join us on Sunday to learn the full story about the patroness of light, eyes, sight, and wheat.
