Leucius of Brindisi
Saint Leucius was initially a missionary from Alexandria, Egypt,〔(St. Leucius of Brindisi ) Catholic Online〕 who later founded the diocese of Brindisi, as the first Bishop in 165. It is believed that he later suffered martyrdom in 180.
==Early life==
Not much is known of Leucius' early life, although it is believed that he was born in Eastern Europe, to Eudecius and Euphrodisia and was given the name of Eupressius at birth.〔(San Leucio di Brindisi Vescovo ) Santi Beati e Testimoni〕 What is known is that the young Eupressius was educated and spent the formative years of his life in Alexandria, Egypt. Following the death of his mother, he entered monastic life. A heavenly vision, during the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin, would change his name from Eupressius to Leucius. Having already been ordained a bishop, Leucius wanted to undertake a missionary apostolate in Brindisi, to liberate the pagans there from misconceptions of Christianity. Leucius left Alexandria for Brindisi, which at the time was one of the largest ports of the Mediterranean, in what is now the southern part of Italy.
