St. Philomena is known as “Powerful with God,” because so many favors and miracles have been attributed to her since the discovery of her bones in 18o2. St. Philomena was raised to sainthood by Pope Gregory XVI, becoming the only person recognized by the Church as a saint solely on the basis of her powerful intercession.

My children, Saint Philomena has great power with God, and she has, moreover, a kind heart; let us pray to her with confidence. Her virginity and generosity in embracing her heroic martyrdom have rendered her so agreeable to God that He will never refuse her anything that she asks for us.
~ Saint John Vianney
