St, Vitus: Legend has Vitus, son of a senator in Sicily, become a Christian when he was twelve. His miracles became widely known. Fled to Rome, where he freed Emperor Diocletian's son of an evil spirit attributed to sorcery and subjected to various tortures but emerged unscathed. Freed when during a storm, temples were destroyed and an angel guided them back to Lucania, where they eventually died.

He is one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers and is the patron of epileptics, those afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance (named after him}, dancers, and actors, and is a protector against storms. Feast day - June 15th.
