The Fourteen Holy Helpers were a group of saints invoked with great fervor during the Black Death in Europe from 1346 to 1349. Pray this novena to stop coronavirus and other pandemics Starts: July 30th Feastday: August 8th Introduction The Fourteen Holy Helpers were a group of saints invoked with great fervor during the Black Death in Europe from 1346 to 1349.

Thomas went on to enter the Dominican Order, become a professor and theologian, writing the Summa Theologiae, the ...
