St. Candida the Elder (d. 78) was an elderly woman of Naples, Italy. She was cured of an illness by St. Peter. She was baptized by St. Peter and became an ardent Chris­tian. She went about converting St. Aspren, who became the first bishop of Naples.

St. Candida please pray for us to have the grace to lead others to Christ like you did.
