Our father among the [[saint]]s, '''Hilary of Poitiers''' was a leader in the West in the fight against [[Arianism]] in the fourth century. In this fight he was joined in the West by Ss. [[Ambrose of Milan]] and [[Martin of Tours]]. His popularity among the people of Poitiers was so great that he was elected [[bishop]] of Poitiers even though he was still married. During the course of the fight against Arianism his successes were mixed with setbacks, including being banished by the emperor for four years. He presented his position with many writings as he supported the "Homoiousians." His [[feast day]] is celebrated on [[January 13]].
