Saint Roche is revered as a patron saint of healing and protection against plagues.

Saint Roche was born in Montpellier, France, in the 13th century. He was a devout Christian who, upon learning of the Black Death, left his home to assist those afflicted with the plague. He contracted the disease himself but miraculously recovered. Throughout his life, Saint Roche continued to care for the sick and the poor, earning him the title of "Protector of the Sick."
