ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN OCTOBER Saints celebrated on the 31st of October SAINT MIROCLES, BISHOP OF MILAN Saint Mirocles (Mirocletus) was the eighth bishop of Milan.

With his deacon Severus he also took part in the synod at Arles. As Papebroche* has clearly determined, this holy bishop's death occurred on October 31, 315. He is buried in the Church of St Victor. (Ugh. IV. 22 et 40). St Mirocles is also commemorated on April 30, November 30, and December 3 .
