Feast day: December 2
St. Bibiana
A young Roman woman of a family wiped out in persecution, who, by tradition, was scourged to death for refusing to give up her faith and her virginity.
An ancient church on the site of her home still bears her name in Rome, and she was long invoked by those suffering from seizures and headaches.
