St Maximimius

Maximinius studied for many years to become a priest and later he even became a Bishop of Trier. When St. Athanasius of Alexandria was sent into exile (kicked out of his own country and not allowed to come back) in Trier, Maximinius did everything he could to make him comfortable and lessen his sorrow of being far away from his people. Bishop St. Paul of Constantinople was also protected by Maximinius from the anger of Emperor Constantius. St. Athanasius wrote that Maximinius was brave, holy and well known by his people as being a miracle worker. He defended the Church against many people that attacked it.
