Saint Matthew, depicted with an angel, is the patron saint of Salerno, Italy, bankers, and tax collectors A "Saint Honoré Cake Shop" in Hong Kong. Saint Honorius (Honoré) is the patron saint of bakers and confectioners. A patron saint is a saint who is regarded as the intercessor and advocate in heaven of a nation, place, craft, activity, class, or person.[1] Patron saints, because they have already transcended to the metaphysical, are able to intercede effectively for the needs of their special charges. Some consider it a special devotion to God by displaying humility in asking a saint for intercession rather than expecting to be answered themselves. [2]
