Wulfram of Sens Saint

Saint Wulfram of Fontenelle or Saint Wulfram of Sens (also Vuilfran, Wulfrann, Wolfran, Latin: Wulframnus, French: Vulfran or Vulphran; c. 640 – 20 March 703) was the Archbishop of Sens. His life was recorded eleven years after he died by the monk Jonas of Fontenelle. However, there seems to be little consensus about the precise dates of most events whether during his life or post mortem.Saint Wulfram is depicted in art as baptising a young king, or the son of King Radbod. Sometimes the young king is near him and sometimes he is shown arriving by ship with monks to baptise the king. There are two churches dedicated to him in England, at Grantham, Lincolnshire and Ovingdean, Sussex, and one at Abbeville, in the French département of Somme. As a patron saint, he protects against the dangers of the sea.
