Saint Alexander Sauli, C.R.S.P. († 1592), was an Italian priest, who is called the "Apostle of Corsica". In 1571, he was appointed by Pius V to the ancient see of Aleria, Corsica, where he rebuilt churches, founded colleges and seminaries, and despite the depredations of corsairs, placed the Church in a flourishing condition. He was beatified in 1741 by Pope Benedict XIV and canonized in 1904 by Pope Pius X. He is a holy patron of Corsica and Barnabite seminarians.
