St. Leonard of Noblac (d. 559) was a Hermit and an abbot who was converted to Christianity by St. Remigius. He was a French courtier who was offered to be a bishop, but he instead became a recluse at Micy, France. He then lived at Limoges, France, and he was given land by the royal court on which he founded Noblac Abbey.

St. Leonard pray for women who are in labor today to have an easy delivery.

Patron of: Women in labor and prisoners of war.
