John of Hippo
Old man from Hippo, leper for fifteen years, healed by Jesus.[1]
"He was rich, we remember. The more the pain struck him, the more he became righteous. He and his whole house were reached by healing the leprous pilgrims. To the pain of seeing his three children die, then his wife Anne. However, he proclaims God and people come from the surroundings to hear him. When he learned of the miracle of the two possessed... oh! he began to preach the faith in You. Lord, if men have greeted You by the name of Messiah, if the women have greeted You as victor and king, if our children know Your Name and that You are the Saint of Israel, it is thanks to the poor leper."
