St. Homobonus (d. 1197) was a confessor and a patron of tailors and cloth workers. He was born in Cremona, Italy, where he became a merchant. He was married and was a model of virtue beloved by all. Homobonus died on November 13 while attending Mass at St. Giles Church in Cremona. His fellow citizens petitioned the Holy See for his canonization, which was performed in 1199.
St. Homobonus please pray for us to enrich so much good in our society that everyone can see God through us like you did.
