More About The Fourteen Holy Helpers
The Fourteen Holy Helpers were a group of saints invoked with great fervor during the Black Death in Europe from 1346 to 1349.
These great saints individually were patrons and patronesses of various maladies, and each had developed a large and devoted following over the centuries. It was understandable, then, during the Plague that the faithful turned to their intercession before the throne of God.
While this feast was removed from the Roman calendar in 1969, the fourteen holy helpers remain saints of the Church, even if for some the historical evidence of their lives is scant.
The Holy Helpers are:
- St. Achatius: May 8th — Headaches
- St. Barbara: Dec. 4th — Fever — Sudden death
- St. Blaise : Feb. 3rd — Ills of the throat
- St. Catherine of Alexandria: Nov. 25th — Sudden death
- St. Christopher: July 25th — Plagues — Sudden death
- St. Cyriacus: Aug. 8th — Temptations
- St. Denis: Oct. 9th — Headaches
- St. Erasmus (Elmo): June 2nd — Abdominal maladies
- St. Eustachius (Eustace): Sep. 20th — Family trouble
- St. George: Apr. 23rd — Protection of domestic animals
- St. Giles (Aegidius): Sep.1st — Plagues — Good Confession
