Marculf is also known as Marcoul. He was born at Bayeux, Gaul, at noble parents. He was ordained when he was thirty, and did missionary work at Coutances. Desirous of living as a hermit, he was granted land by king Childebert at Nanteuil. He attracted numerous disciples, and built a monastery, of which he was abbot. It became a great pilgrimage center after his death on May 1. St. Marculf was regarded as a patron who cured skin diseases, and as late as 1680, sufferers made pilgrimages to his shrine at Nanteuil and bathed in the springs connected with the church. His feast day is May 1.

Kindly bless all the workers of this world. Grant them joy and happiness in their life. Fill them with all their daily needs and keep them safe and sound. kindly shower special blessings to the people of Greece that are suffering due to economic downturn. Help them to cope with the situation and patiently bear the burdens and see better days soon. Help their economy to improve so that they live a dignified life with joy and prayer. Enable the rich people to become generous and share their wealth and remove the sufferings of others. Bless all those people who do hard labour like, fisherman, carpenter, farmer, builder etc., Amen.
