Saint Expeditus was a commander of the Roman legions, who served the Emperor Diocletian (3rd and 4th century). He had the revelation that he should be a Christian, something that at that time was punishable by death, although the devil appeared to him in the form of a raven and said to him: "Cras, cras, cras", which in Latin means "tomorrow". The saint crushed the animal while answering: "Hodie, hodie, hodie", that is, "today". Because he did not postpone his conversion, he is considered the patron of urgent causes. He was executed by the Romans on April 19, 303.
