Saint Dymphna

Died: 7th C.

Feast Day: May 15

Dymphna, the only daughter to a pagan king, took after her mother in faith and beauty, taking a vow of chastity at a young age. After the death of his wife, Dymphna’s father sought to marry his daughter, causing her to flee. After finding her and her continued refusals, Dymphna’s father cut off her head making her a martyr at the age of fifteen.

Today we celebrate the Holy Great Virgin Martyr Dymphna of Geel. Saint Dymphna was from Ireland whose mother was a Christian but died young and whose father was a pagan. In an attempt to find a second wife as beautiful and charming as his first, he could not find any but his own daughter, Dymphna. Falling into lustful desire for her, Dymphna fled the country, away from her father, and went to Belgium with the priest Gerebran. Saint Dymphna's father eventually found them, slaughtering both the holy priest and his own daughter who was only 15 years of age. Saint Dymphna is considered the patron saint of mental health and the abused and often performs miracles for those who pray to her with faith.
