Lucy was a Christian and lived during a time of severe religious persecution. A marriage had been arranged for her to a pagan. When she refused the Roman governor of Sicily sentenced her to forced prostitution. However, when guards went to arrest her, they could not move her even when they hitched her to a team of oxen. The governor then ordered her killed instead. After torture that included having her eyes torn out, she was surrounded by bundles of wood which were set afire; they went out. She was then executed by being stabbed to death with a dagger.
Saint Lucy faced the hardship of being persecuted for her Christian faith during the Roman Empire. She was imprisoned, tortured, and ultimately martyred for refusing to renounce her beliefs.
