  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 ii"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. "AT Rome, the passion of St. Theodora, sister of the illustrious martyr Hermes, who underwent martyrdom in the time of the emperor Adrian, under the judge Aurelian, and was buried by the side of her brother, on the Salarian road, a short distance from the city." [3]
  3. A church dedicated to Martyr Gerontius existed in Constantinople until the end of the 14th century.
  4. As indicated in the Martyrologium Hieronymianum.
  5. Holy Righteous Ahaz died in peace. It is not known where and when.
  6. "At Constantinople, under the emperor Leo, St. Macarius, confessor, who ended his life in exile for the defence of the honor paid to sacred images." [3]
  7. "At Amiens, the abbot St. Valery, whose tomb is made illustrious by frequent miracles." [3]
  8. The Irishmen Caidoc and Fricor evangelized the country of the Morini in Picardy, northern France, beginning about 622. Among the souls they won for Christ was the nobleman Riquier (Saint Ricarius), who intervened when some locals to offense to their preaching and took them into his home. Riquier became a fervent Christian, who engaged in penitential austerities and eventually was ordained. In 625, Riquier founded Centula based on the Rule of Columbanus, another Irishman. Their relics are still venerated at the parish church of Saint-Riquier in the diocese of Amiens, although they rested in Centula until the 17th century. Saints Caidoc and Fricor joined Riquier's community and remained there until they were buried in Saint Riquier's church. [16]
  9. St. Pachomius was a Romanian bishop who was very devoted to the spirituality of St Paisius Velichkovsky and to the Saints of the Kiev Caves Lavra where he asked to spend his final days and as entombed at the Holy Dormition Lavra. He was glorified by the Romanian Orthodox Church in 2006 and his name was then added to the Ukrainian Orthodox Calendar. [28]
