ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN JANUARY Saints celebrated on the 3rd January SAINT FERREOL, BISHOP OF UZES A page of one of Fortunatus Hueber's Saints' books, "Stammenbuch..." (1693) Saint Ferreol (Ferreolus) was born in Narbonne, Gaul, in the year 521, and succeeded Saint Firminus, his paternal uncle, in the bishopric of Uzes (Ucetia, Utica) in southern France. Following some malicious slander he was exiled to Paris; but since his innocence was eventually recognised, Ferreol received permission to return to his diocese. He resumed his episcopal duties at his See around the year 558. He died in the twenty-eighth year of his bishopric. His feast is recorded as January 3, writes Butler *. The Bollandists *, on the other hand, state that he is commemorated on January 4.
