Ὁ Ἅγιος Λέων γεννήθηκε στὴ Ραβέννα τῆς Ἰταλίας ἀπὸ γονεῖς εὐλαβεῖς καὶ εὐγενεῖς. Ἀφοῦ σπούδασε, χειροτονήθηκε πρεσβύτερος στὴ Ραβέννα καὶ ἀργότερα ἐξελέγη γιὰ τὴν καθαρότητα καὶ πνευματικότητα τοῦ βίου αὐτοῦ Ἐπίσκοπος Κατάνης τῆς Σικαλίας. Ἔγινε προστάτης τῶν ὀρφανῶν καὶ τῶν χηρῶν, δίδασκε καὶ νουθετοῦσε τὸ ποίμνιό του καὶ ἔκτισε τὸ ναὸ τῆς Ἁγίας Μάρτυρος Λουκίας († 13 Δεκεμβρίου). Ὁ Ἅγιος διακρίθηκε, ἐπίσης, γιὰ τοὺς ἀγῶνες του κατὰ τῶν αἱρετικῶν, τοὺς ὁποίους νίκησε καὶ ντρόπιασε ὄχι μόνο μὲ λόγια ἀλλὰ καὶ μὲ κείμενα.
