Indeed, almost every occupation has a saint associated with it. These saints act as intermediaries between the individual and God, helping to have their prayers heard. They are a holy intercessor, who can advocate more effectively on the prayer's behalf, having a special affinity with the prayer's profession. The term "patron" comes from the Latin word patronus, which means defender, protector, and/or lawyer.
