Candida the Elder
text:
Candida the Elder was a supposed early Christian saint and resident of Naples, Italy. According to her legend, Candida was an elderly woman who hospitably welcomed Peter the Apostle, when he was passing through Naples on his way to Rome. The woman was cured of an illness by Peter and converted to Christianity. She was baptized by Peter and later converted Aspren, the first bishop of Naples, to Christianity. She is one of the patron saints of Naples. Basil Watkins says she probably never existed.
