'''Saint Bartolo Longo''' (born 10 February 1841, died 5 October 1926) was an [[Saints|Italian saint]], lawyer, and lay Dominican, revered as the Apostle of the Rosary for his devotion to the Virgin Mary and founding the Shrine of Our Lady of the Rosary in Pompei, [[Italy]]. Born in Latiano, Brindisi, to Bartolomeo Longo and Antonia Lupelli, he strayed from his Catholic faith during university, engaging in anti-clerical and occult practices, but converted through the influence of friends and Dominican priests. As a lay Dominican, he transformed Pompei from a crime-ridden area into a pilgrimage center, establishing orphanages and schools. Beatified on 26 October 1980 by Pope John Paul II, his canonization is scheduled for 19 October 2025 by Pope Francis. His relics are venerated at the Pompei Shrine, and he is honored in the [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] and [[Orthodox Church|Orthodox]] traditions.<ref name="web0">https://press.vatican.va/content/salastampa/en/bollettino/pubblico/2025/xx/xx.html</ref><ref name="web2">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartolo_Longo</ref><ref name="web5">https://www.churchpop.com/how-bartolo-longo-converted-a-city-through-the-rosary/</ref>
