Tarcisius
While carrying the Blessed Sacrament to prisoners, this 3rd-century saint was set upon by a pagan mob. He protected the Eucharist that was hidden in his clothes and fell to the ground. After he'd been stoned to death, the pagans searched his lifeless body and found nothing: his precious cargo had completely vanished. Certainly this martyr would pray that your own little "Tarry" would be protected by such a shield of faith.
