Saint Corona is especially venerate in Austria and Bavaria, as the patron saint of treasure hunters and against epidemics.
Saint Corona is invoked as patron Saint against plague and epidemics.
Her feast day is celebrated on May 14.
DETROIT (ChurchMilitant.com) - A little known — until now — 16-year-old saint of the second century is currently being hailed as a source of hope and protection against the communist-created Wuhan virus.
For traditional Catholics, St. Corona has been honored in various places for centuries for her adherence to the Faith in the face of suffering and martyrdom. According to ancient hagiographic accounts and the Roman Martyrology, she is the saint to pray to in times of plagues and pandemics.
Almighty God, who forgive the sins of your people and heal all their faults, you who call the Lord our healer and sent your beloved Son to bear our sickness, look upon us who stand humbly before You. We pray to You in this time of plague and need, remember Your love and kindness that You have always shown to Your people in times of tribulation. Just as You graciously looked upon Aaron's atonement and stopped the plague that broke out, just as You accepted David's sacrifice and commanded the destroying angel to withdraw his hand, accept also today our prayer and sacrifice and show us mercy. Keep this disease away from us, allow those affected to be healed, protect those who have been preserved from it so far by Your goodness, and do not let the plague spread any further. Holy Mary, health of the sick, pray for us! Saint Corona, pray for us! Saint Sebastian, pray for us! Saint Roch, pray for us! Amen!
