Feast: May 24

Icon from webiste for St. Vincent's Orthodox Church, Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese (visit them at: http://spot.colorado.edu/~ashtonm/owpp/stvincent.htm)

Brother of St. Lupus of Troyes, St. Vincent abandoned a military career to become a monk at Lérins Abbey off the coast of Cannes. He was ordained and in about 434 wrote his famous Commonitorium, from which the scroll above is loosely taken.
