Saint of the Day – 24 July – Saint Ursicinus (Died c380) Bishop of Sens in France and Confessor, a powerful opponent of the Arians.
The Roman Martyrology mentions him today: “At Sens, St Ursicinus, Bishop and Confessor.”
Unknown Bishop Saint
During Ursicinus’ Ep[iscopate, the heresy of Arianism had gained significant ground within Sens and its surrounding regions. Recognising the danger it posed to his flock, Ursicinus vehemently opposed this heresy, engaging in debates and sermons to combat its spread. Through his charismatic preaching and unwavering commitment to the truth, Ursicinus was able to convince many of the error of Arianism and restore orthodoxy within the region.
St Ursicinus dies of natural causes in around 380 and is celebrated today, 24 July.

as so many sermons.
We do not use them, it is they who move us
