ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN FEBRUARY
Saints celebrated on the 22nd of February
SAINT PASCHASIUS, ARCHBISHOP OF VIENNE
Saint Paschasius was a 4th century Archbishop of Vienne in France who was distinguished for his holiness of life. He appears to have flourished towards the close of the great persecution under Diocletian; but like others in Gaul and Britain, to have been spared, thanks to the lenity of the Ceasar, Constantius Chlorus. No other particulars concerning him have come down to us.
From The Book of Saints, 1921, by the Monks of Ramsgate
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Paschasius, your blessed bishop, may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
