Saint Philomena is a saint venerated for her faith and martyrdom. Its history remains shrouded in mystery and legend. She is said to have been a 13-year-old girl from Greece who was martyred in the 4th century. Despite the torture, she refused to renounce her Christian faith. She is often represented with a fleur-de-lis, a symbol of purity, and an anchor, a symbol of hope. She is considered the patroness of desperate causes and is invoked to obtain miracles. Her devotion has spread throughout the world and she is commemorated on August 11.
