St Lawrence is one of the most beloved saints in the calendar - perhaps due to his humor in the face of adversity, but also because of his love of the suffering and downtrodden of society.

He is the patron of archivists, armories, armorers, brewers, butchers, Ceylon, comedians, comics, confectioners, cooks, cutlers, deacons, fire, glaziers, laundry workers, librarians, libraries, lumbago, paupers, poor people, restaurateurs, Rome, schoolchildren, seminarians, Sri Lanka, stained glass workers, students, tanners, vine growers, vintners, and winemakers. His feast day is August 10.
