HOR, HERMIT - 12 NOVEMBER

  ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER Saints celebrated on the 12th November WELCOME! HOR, HERMIT Hor, also called ( " Saint Or ") was a hermit who is mentioned by both St Jerome and Rufinus.  According to Elenchus *, he lived on Mount Nitria and is said to have paid homage to the errors of Origen for a while.  In their entry on August 7 the Bollandists * call him "Saint Or," but do not agree with the title "saint" which they found in the Greek meneae.  (Hor is also commemorated on March 29 and November 28.)
