Blessed Lucy of Caltagirone († 1400) was a Franciscan Saint. She was born in Sicily and was saved from death by St Nicholas, starting increasing devotion in her life. She joined the Third Order, helping the poor and practicing a life of prayer and penance. Her sanctity spread far and wide as she performed miracles, including the curing of eye ailments, and aided in the conversion of many. The numerous miracles at her grave were ample testimony of her sanctity. Many silver eyes have been left at her tomb because many who suffered from eye diseases and even blind persons were cured through her intercession. Her Feast Day is commemorated on Sep 22.
