Dismas is believed to have had a previous meeting with our [[Lord]] on the [[Holy Family]]'s flight to [[Egypt]]. It is said that Dismas was very sick and the [[Blessed Virgin]] bathed him in the same water as the [[Holy Child]] and Dismas was healed. This story maybe a foreshadowing of how [[Jesus]] would heal Dismas' soul before his death so that he could enjoy eternal life.

Dismas is the patron saint for those condemned to death. His feast day is March 25, though is gains him no particular recognition as the important feast of the [[Annunciation]] falls upon the same day.
