About Our Patron Saint:
St. Damian was born in Arabia, the twin brother of St. Cosmas. He is the patron saint of apothecaries, barbers, blind people, doctors, pharmacists, and surgeons. He was a physician who accepted no payment and was also known as the Moneyless or the Silverless. He was tortured and eventually martyred cerca 287-303 AD, yet he suffered no injuries throughout the torture. Relics of St. Damian may be found in Cyrus and Syria.
