Saint Lucy.
Saint Lucy was a strong and devout Christian. She had taken the vows of chastity, to remain unmarried. Rather than accept a marriage offer to a person who desired her for her beautiful eyes, she plucked out her eyes and sent them to him with this message: “ Here is what you desire so much, now, I beg you, leave me in peace!” As the legend tells us, her sight was restored to her the next day.

Saint Anthony of Padua
Saint Anthony is asked for help with our ordinary problems all the time. Like a good friend, St. Anthony is always willing to help. People like to ask St. Anthony to help them find things that are lost. Perhaps you have said: “Tony, Tony, turn around, something is lost and can’t be found.” Saint Anthony spoke often about how important it is to live in God’s presence everyday.
