Biography

Saint Faustus of Rome was one of a group of 24 martyrs who died together in Rome, Italy, but the exact date is unknown. Out of all the martyrs, Faustus is the only one whose name has come down to us. As a pre-congregation saint, Saint Faustus lived before the formal process of canonization was established in the Catholic Church. Therefore, his canonization also took place before this formal process. However, the specific details and circumstances surrounding his canonization are not known. No representations or symbols have been associated with Saint Faustus, and he does not have any known patronages. It is likely that with the limited information available, his life and martyrdom did not leave a significant impact on the collective memory of the Catholic Church.
