St. Hilary of Poitiers

Saint Hilary, born early in the fourth century, was raised a pagan. He was converted to Christianity when he met his God of nature in the Scriptures. His wife was still living when he was chosen, against his will, to be the bishop of Poitiers in France. He was soon taken up with battling what became the scourge of the fourth century, Arianism, which denied the divinity of Christ.

The heresy spread rapidly. When Emperor Constantius ordered all the bishops of the West to sign a condemnation of Athanasius, the great defender of the faith in the East, Hilary refused and was banished from France to far off Phrygia. Eventually he was called the Athanasius of the West.

Saint Hilary died in 368. He is a patron against snake bites. His Feast day is January 13.
