Life
Saints Peregrinus, Maceratus and Viventius are three saints of the sixth century, commemorated in the Western calendars on 4 August. By tradition, Maceratus and Viventius were two Christian brothers who came from Spain and died in France, seeking to rescue their enslaved sister; Peregrinus is named with them.
Our sources preserve no account of their lives. They are commemorated as saints of the undivided Church, by the New Calendar. He is not to be confused with Saint Peregrinus of Modena, commemorated on 1 August.
