Saint Longinus is the centurion who pierced the side of Jesus while He was hanging on the Cross.   
Longinus, who was almost blind, was healed when some of the blood and water from Christ fell into his eyes.     
It was then Longinus expressed, "Indeed this was the Son of God!"

Longinus openly glorified God before his demeaning comrades with a profound declaration of belief.
