Saint Faro was a 7th-century bishop of Meaux and a count of Guînes who belonged to an influential Burgundian noble family. After serving at the royal courts of Theodobert II, Theodoric, and Clotaire II, he used his position to advocate for the vulnerable, including orphans and widows. Following the influence of his sister, Burgundofara, he left his courtly life to enter the clergy. He eventually succeeded Gundoald as the bishop of Meaux, a role he held during the middle of the 7th century.
