Life

Saint Auxibius was a Cypriot who lived in the fourth century. He was bishop of the city of Soloi and took part in the First Ecumenical Council at Nicaea in 325.

In the year 343 he was the first of twelve Cypriot bishops to sign the acts of the Council of Sardica. He fell asleep in peace. The verse of the synaxarion says that he gave the company of the saved an increase when he departed this life. He is commemorated on 28 April, according to the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style). One calendar lists him as Auxibius II, together with Memnon the Wonderworker, bishops of Soloi.
