Life
Saint Antiochus of Lyon (Andeol) was a priest in the fifth century. When Saint Justus, Bishop of Lyon, joined the hermits in Egypt, the priest Antiochus was sent to seek him out and persuade him to return to his diocese. His efforts were in vain, and on his return to Lyon he was himself chosen bishop. He reposed around 410. He is commemorated on 15 October, as a saint of the undivided Church, by the New Calendar.
