St. Lucy STORY St. Lucy is known for being a woman of bravery and strength. At an early age, her father died. Lucy was left alone with her mother, who was suffering from dysentery for about four years. Lucy vowed that her life would be lived in accordance to serving Christ. Lucy’s mother, Eutychia, tried to arrange a marriage for her with a pagan. Lucy knew that her mother would not be convinced by a young girl's vow so she devised a plan to convince her mother that Christ was the most powerful partner for life. During an early morning mass, Lucy and her mother heard the story of the famous Saint Agatha who cured a woman with dysentery. Lucy and her mother went to the tomb of Saint Agatha and her mother's long illness was cured miraculously.
