The Blessed Francesco Lippi, O.Carm. (†1291) (also known as Blessed Franco of Siena) was a Carmelite Hermit, Mystic, Penitent, well-known for his prophetic gifts. He lived his life as a soldier before suffering the loss of sight at which point his healing led him down the path of repentance and into the Carmelites. Lippi was beatified in 1670 after Pope Clement X approved Lippi's longstanding local 'cultus' (or popular devotion).He experienced visions of Jesus Christ and the Madonna as well as seeing angels and experiencing the temptations of demons. The confirmation of the late Lippi’s ‘cultus’ (or popular devotion) allowed for Pope Clement X to approve his Beatification in 1670.
St. Fausta of Cyzicus (†c.311), was a 4th-century girl from Cyzicus who, at the age of 13, was arrested, tortured, and executed for being a Christian. A pagan priest, Evilasius, who was responsible for torturing and executing her, converted to Christianity after watching her courageous resistance, and he was also martyred for this act. Although Fausta had remained impervious to the initial torture, she and Evilasius perished together in a cauldron of boiling water. They are also venerated in the Eastern Catholic Church along with Maximus, the magistrate who condemned Evilasius. Tradition holds that Maximus repented at the last moment and joined the pair in the cauldron.
