Saint of the Day – 31 August – St Honoratus (5th Century) Bishop of Marseilles and disciple of St Honoratus of Arles, the holy Bishop, Founder and Abbot of Lerins Monastery. Also known as – Onoratus, Onorato.

Honoratus was a Bishop of Marseille who lived in the 5th Century.

In the records of the Diocese, he is listed as number sixth after Greco, mentioned in 475 and before Saint Cannatus, mentioned at the end of the 5th Century.

We know very little information about him. Tradition holds that he was a disciple of Saint Honoratus of Arles, of whom, as modern Hagiographers affirm, he wrote the Vita.

Honoratus was the Bishop pf Marseilles during the Pontificate of Gelasius, with whom he had a lively exchange of correspondence, now lost, during which he had to defend his orthodoxy to the Pontiff.

According to some sources, our Saint Honoratus is described as a renowned orator and preacher of great power.

In the Diocese of Marseille, Saint Honoratus is celebrated and remembered otoday, 31 August. For St Honoratus of Arles: https://anastpaul.com/2024/01/16/saint-of-the-day-16-january-saint-honoratus-of-arles-c350-c429-bishop-and-confessor/
