Saint Sebastian

St. Sebastian, an early saint and martyr, was fatally wounded in the Diocletianic Persecution of Christians. Despite being shot with arrows while tied to a post, he survived and was later healed by Irene of Rome. This miraculous event has been depicted in 17th-century paintings. St. Sebastian is known as the patron saint of archers, athletes, bookbinders, cattle diseases, rebellious children, opponents of religion, funeral directors, gardeners, hardware, ironworkers, lead workers, plague patients, potters, racket makers, stone masons, and swimmers, with his feast day celebrated on January 20th.
