Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
    The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar").
  2. ^ Name days celebrated today include:
    • Sergios, Sergio, Serge (Σέργιος).
  3. ^ "In the province of the Euphrates, the holy martyrs Sergius and Bacchus, noble Romans, in the time of the emperor Maximian. Bacchus, being scourged with rough whips until his body was completely mangled, breathed his last in the confession of Christ. Sergius had his feet forced into shoes full of sharp-pointed nails, and, remaining unshaken in the faith, he was sentenced to undergo capital punishment. The place where he reposes is called after him Sergiopolis, and, on account of the signal miracles wrought in it, is honored by a great concourse of Christians."[13]
  4. ^ Name days celebrated today include:
    • Polychronis (Πολυχρόνιος);
    • Polychronia (Πολυχρονία).
  5. ^ See: (in Greek) Άγιος Πολυχρόνιος. Βικιπαίδεια. (Greek Wikipedia).
  6. ^ "At Padua, St. Justina, virgin and martyr, who was baptized by the blessed Prosdocimus, disciple of St. Peter. As she remained firm in the faith of Christ, she was put to the sword by order of the governor Maximus, and thus went to God."[13]
  7. ^ "Not found in any ancient Martyrology. The Acts are a late mediaeval forgery; also the forged Acts of S. Prosdochimus, both compositions of the I2th cent."[18]
  8. ^ "At Rome, the holy martyrs Marcellus and Apuleius, who at first followed Simon Magus, but seeing the wonders which the Lord performed by the Apostle Peter, abandoned Simon, and embraced the apostolical doctrine. After the death of the Apostles, under the ex-consul Aurelian, they won the crown of martyrdom, and were buried near the city."[13]
  9. ^ "Marcellus and Apuleius seem to be the same as Nicetas and Aquila, mentioned in the Clementines as disciples of Simon Magus; the Martyrologies speak of them as following Simon till converted by S. Peter. On reference to the Clementine Recognitions, that most extraordinary philosophical religious romance of the 2nd century, we find that their names in Greek were Nicetas and Aquila. The inventor of the Acts of SS. Nereus and Achilles adopted their story into his composition, and crowned them with martyrdom. They are purely apocryphal personages."[19]
  10. ^ "At Rome, on the Ardeatine road, the demise of St. Mark, pope and confessor."[13]
  11. ^ Several churches in Wales were dedicated to him.
  12. ^ "At Bourges, St. Augustus, priest and confessor."[13]
  13. ^ He is notable for discovering the relics of St Ursinus, Apostle of that region.
  14. ^ See: (in Italian) Augusto di San Sinforiano. Wikipedia. (Italian Wikipedia).
  15. ^ Born in Ireland, he went to France with nine other members of his family, six brothers and three sisters, and settled near Rheims. He became a priest and ministered there.
  16. ^ Osyth was a princess of the Hwiccas in the west of England. She married Sighere, King of the East Saxons. Their son, the future St Offa, became King in 683, later abdicating. Osyth founded a convent, now St Osyth, on a creek of the River Colne in Essex.
  17. ^ He is buried in the Church of San Gaudenzio.
  18. ^ They are referenced only by St. Nicodemus the Hagiorite. A service to them was issued in Heraklion in 1879, which says that they all reposed peacefully around the same time.
