About this listen

Saint Roch, patron of plagues, miracle worker, patron saint of cholera, plague, epidemics, dogs, dog lovers, pilgrims, bachelors, surgeons, and grave diggers, among others. The Lord works in powerful ways. What a time for St. Roch to come back into our lives than now, when the world is in the midst of an epidemic.

St. Roch is the patron saint of plagues and epidemics, among other things. We were first introduced to St. Roch in Assisi, at the Convent of San Damiano. There is a painting of St. Roch and the dog. In Italy, he is called Santo Rocco. St. Rocco is very important to the Italian people, and actually to all Europeans, as well.
