St. Barbara of Nicomedia COLLECTION (BK 001)

While doubts about her historicity surfaced in the 20th century, St. Barbara’s extensive list of patronages attests to her unabated popularity with the laity throughout the ages. Chief among her patronages are artillerymen, miners, and, by extension, all workers who are at risk of sudden or violent death. + Here, she is depicted holding a host and chalice, symbols of the Viaticum or final Eucharist. + For a short bio and a more extensive list of her patronages, see catholicsaints.info/saint-barbara/. + Feast: December 4
