Anselmo di Bomarzo

Saint Anselmo di Bomarzo was an Italian bishop, born around the year 550 in the town of Bomarzo, which would later venerate him as its patron. Remembered as a saint, Anselmo’s life is chiefly known through this enduring witness of local faith: a shepherd of God’s people whose holiness left a lasting mark on the community that raised him. Though many details of his ministry and even the year of his death have not come down to us, his name continues to be honored in the Church’s prayer. Each year on April 24, the faithful celebrate his feast day, asking his intercession for Bomarzo and for all who seek steadfastness in their own service of Christ and His Church.
