Good and holy St Eligius, patron saint of metal workers, please pray that through my God given talents I may bring joy to others. Amen.
St. Eligius of Noyon, Bishop is the patron saint of metal workers, carriage makers, and mechanical engineers. So, it only makes sense that, in my car hobby, I begin the day's work with a quick plea to St. Eligius, beseeching his intercession for the work to come.
