Posted on by AnaStpaul

Saint of the Day – 10 July – Saint Pascharius (Died c680) Bishop of Nantes in Brittany, France. He founded a renowned Monastery in his Diocese with the assistant of the Abbot of St Wandrille’s Monastery. Also known as – Pascario, Pascual, Pasquier.

 

As the twentieth Bishop of Nantes, he wished to have Monks in his Diocese. He, therefore, appealed to the Abbot of Saint Wandrille , who sent him Saint Hermelandus (Died c720) Priest, Founder-Abbot of the Monastery of Aindre, accompanied by twelve Monks. The holy Bishop welcomed them and participated with them in the founding of the Monastery of Indre on one of the Islands of the Loire.

The Notices from the Offices of the Church of Nantes where Saint Pascharius, Bishop, is celebrated today, 10 July: “Saint Pasquier/Pascharius is, according to the Episcopal lists, the twentieth Bishop of Nantes. The only act of his Episcopate which has survived, is the founding of the Abbey of Indre on an Island in the Loire. It was Bishop Pascharius who requested Monks from the Abbot of Fontenelle and who installed Saint Hermelandus in the lands he had designated for him.
The event took place in the last years of the 7th Century. Saint Pascharius was already honoured with a cult in the 12th Century.”
