Saint Ansovinus of Camerino

Memorial

Profile

Priest. Hermit at Castel Raimondo near Torcello, Italy. Bishop of Camerino, Italy; he accepted the vocation on the condition that his parishioners did not have to recruit soldiers, an obligation imposed on most bishops of the time. Confessor to Emperor Louis the Pious. Miracle worker. His association with crops come from his work of feeding the poor. Once when the granary was empty, but there were still poor people to feed, he prayed for help; the granary was found to be full, and everyone ate their fill.
