Life

Holy Hierarch Florentianus of Midili was bishop of Midili (today Mdila, in Algeria), in North Africa, under Vandal rule. He was tortured and sent into exile on Corsica in the persecution of King Huneric, and died after 484. His story was recorded by Bishop Victor of Vita. He is commemorated on 28 November by the Roman calendar (new style) as a saint of the undivided Church.
