description: "Eucherius was a high-born and high-ranking ecclesiastic in the Christian church in Roman Gaul. He is remembered for his letters advocating extreme self-abnegation. From 439, he served as Archbishop of Lyon, and Henry Wace ranked him \"the most distinguished occupant of that see\" after Irenaeus. He is venerated as a saint within the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church."
