Francis Xavier Mary Bianchi (; ) (December 2, 1743 – January 31, 1815), was an Italian Barnabite priest and noted scholar, who also gained a reputation for sanctity during his lifetime from both his commitment to his students and to the poor of Naples. He has been proclaimed a saint by the Catholic Church and declared the Apostle of the city. Life Early life Bianchi was born in 1743 in Arpino in the Lazio region, then part of the Papal States, into a loving and pious family.
