I
was confessor, patriarch, and Bishop, the successor to Bishop St Peter of
Alexandria, Egypt. |
I
was mentored by Theonas, Bishop. I was headmaster at the Alexandria
catechetical school. Athanasius, the Apostolic praised me for purity of
Catholic doctrine when slandered by Meletius' party. I died in 313 A.D., 7 Nov, Latin Rite, and 3
June, 30 Oct. Coptic Church. (Probably the same as
Achillas of Alexandria Bishop,
17 Jan.) |
