Saint Ursinus of Bourges (French: Ursin) (3rd century) is venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church and is considered the first bishop of Bourges.

A legend associated with him states that he was originally named Nathaniel and that he was a friend of Philip the Apostle. It holds that he was present at the Last Supper, and read a lesson there. It also states that he was present at the martyrdom of Saint Stephen, and that Saint Peter sent him to Gaul as a missionary. As Hippolyte Delehaye writes, "To have lived amongst the Saviour's immediate following was...honorable...and accordingly old patrons of churches were identified with certain persons in the gospels or who were supposed to have had some part of Christ's life on earth."[1]
