Saint Amator

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Saint Amator (French) Amadour or Amatre was bishop of Auxerre from AD 388 until his death on May 1, 418. He is also confused with a hermit of legend whose feast day is August 20. A tradition in Autun also designates him as its first bishop, with an occupancy date of AD 250 that is intended to tie him to the seven bishops sent to evangelise Gaul in the time of Decius. Bishop Amator's feast day is celebrated on May 1. Saint Amator (French) Amadour or Amatre was bishop of Auxerre from AD 388 until his death on May 1, 418.
