San Pancracio
San Pancracio was one of the martyrs of the first moments of Christianity and was one of those who managed to obtain much fame later.
Although it has not been possible to obtain reliable information or authentic news about the history of his life and death, some vestiges have been preserved and he has been the object of a very intense and widespread cult for centuries. For having suffered martyrdom when he was just a teenager, his figure has been presented as a model of the strength that faith gives, which, according to the evangelical phrase, obtains perfect praise for God from the mouths of children, confirmed in the case of San Pancracio by the testimony of his blood.
The first information we know about Saint Pancras is the basilica that was built over his tomb around the year 500, in Rome. A century later, Saint Gregory the Great preached there, which was a homily on the occasion of his birth. After that homily, the news about his life is more frequent.
The story of his life and martyrdom was collected late, probably from the sixth century, and is legendary. According to what has been found, Saint Pancratius was born in Phrygia, of very wealthy parents and pagan orientation. When his father died in Phrygia, he entrusted him to his brother, named Dionysus. Along with his uncle, Pancratius I left for Rome, establishing his residence on Mount Caelius; which was the same place where Pope Cornelius took refuge, who managed to convert them to Catholicism.
Pancracio makes an early appearance before the Emperor Diocletian, who tries to make him apostatize without success, which is why he condemned him to be beheaded. The sentence was fulfilled next to the Via Aurelia. After that, a woman named Octavila picked up his body and had him buried in a local cemetery, where his basilica, the Basilica of San Pancracio, was later built.
As can be seen, this short story contains serious anachronisms, because according to what is said, Saint Pancratius was baptized by Pope Saint Cornelius, who died in the year 253, while he died in the persecution of Diocletian, when he was still about 15 years old. , fact that occurred in the year 304. The fact that they have tried to correct these errors and make the Passion of Saint Pancras more credible, is the reason why today there are several versions of the events.
As of the XNUMXth century, when his relics were scattered, his cult also spread, becoming very popular, and his name entered all Catholic martyrologies. In Spain, for example, there was no news of his passion during the Visigothic period, although his name was read in some Mozarabic calendars.
The cult of Saint Pancras
In the images, he is represented with a very young figure, almost a child, wearing clothing that varies between the Roman tunic and a military suit, adding the attributes of a martyr. His feast is celebrated on May 12.
Saint Pancratius is considered the saint of those who are afflicted by poverty, he is considered the patron of fortune and games of chance, in a very mistaken way, since the Catholic doctrine is categorically opposed to games of chance and lotteries It is common to see his image in shops, along with a vase that should hold a branch of parsley, and parsley can be placed in the slot of coins that have central holes, often by placing them on the index finger of his images.
In the city of Córdoba, Spain, the holy child is one of the saints with the greatest devotions of yesteryear and this cult has lasted to this day. Hundreds of people gather every Wednesday inside the church of Santa Marina in order to venerate the miraculous image of him located in that church, bring him a donation and offer him some flowers, the custom being to bring him red carnations and parsley.
There are, the only pilgrimages that still worship the image of San Pancracio are the pilgrimages of La Roda de Andalucía, Seville, during the second weekend of May, and that of Valverde del Camino in Huelva, which takes place in the month of June, both towns located in Andalusia.
Life of Saint Pancras
As we have already indicated, Saint Pancras was a boy who lived in Phrygia, a city near Rome, and when his father died, when he was 14 years old, he went to live with his uncle in Rome, to help him with the house and field work.
While in Rome, his uncle took a true passion for Jesus Christ and Saint Pancras converted to the faith and was baptized, but the day after he was baptized, he was taken as a prisoner, due to the persecution of Christians in that time, led by the diabolical emperor Diocletian. Tradition tells us that Pancratius was subjected to torture and cruelty to make him renounce his faith, but the young saint had already given his heart to Jesus and refused all kinds of awards and assistance that were offered to him.
After thanking and forgiving his executioners, he did not hesitate for a moment to sacrifice his adolescence to remain loyal to Jesus Christ. Time after the events, Pope Gregory the Great, on many occasions, asked the people of the city to gather around his sacred tomb, so that, from that place, all those attending could learn what the testimony of the true means. christian love.
At the end, you have to pray an Our Father, a Hail Mary and a Glory Be and it is recommended to do it as often as possible.
