Notes

  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:
    • Lucian, Loukianos (Λουκιανὸς).
  3. Bishop of Catania in Sicily. After a few years as bishop he resigned and became a hermit.
  4. "At Carthage, St. Agileus, martyr, on whose birthday St. Augustine preached his panegyric." [13] His relics were later translated to Rome.
  5. "S. AUGUSTINE preached a sermon on the festival of S. Agleus, and mention is made of the church dedicated to this saint in the life of S. Fulgentius of Ruspe. S. Gregory the Great received the relics of the saint from Dominicus, Bishop of Carthage, as appears from a letter of the great pope which is extant." [14]
  6. Born in France, he was a disciple of St Germanus of Auxerre and St Lupus of Troyes. He accompanied St Germanus to Britain to oppose the Pelagian heresy. He preached the Gospel to the Germans on the lower Moselle and became Bishop of Trier in Germany (446-c 455).
  7. When St Justus, Bishop of Lyons in France, joined the hermits in Egypt, the priest Antiochus was sent to seek him out and persuade him to return to his diocese. The priest's efforts were in vain and on his return to Lyons he was himself chosen bishop.
  8. "At Lyons, St. Antiochus, bishop, who entered the heavenly kingdom after having courageously fulfilled the duties of the high station to which he had been called." [13]
  9. "At Rome, on the Aurelian road, St. Fortunatus, martyr." [13]
  10. [Roman and German Martyrologies. Wyon, Wilson, and Bucelinus.]
    • "S. Thecla was a virgin in Wimborne Abbey, who accompanied S. Lioba to Germany when the latter was summoned thither by her kinsman, S. Boniface. Thecla was apparently also related to S. Boniface; she was made by him abbess of the monastery of Kitzingen-on-the-Maine, on the death of S. Hadeloga in 766. Before that she ruled the abbey of Ochsenfurt." [15]
  11. "ST. THECLA was one of the holy religious whom St Boniface called from England, to establish the rule of St. Benedict, among those of her own sex, in the country which he had recently conquered to the Faith. She was a kinswoman of St. Lioba, and like her a disciple of St. Tetta at Wimborne. It is probable that the two went to Germany at the same time. Thecla, at all events, was at one time an inmate of St. Lioba's Monastery at Bischoffsheim, as is mentioned in the life of the latter Saint. At one time St. Thecla presided over the Abbey of Ochsenfurt, where she may have been placed by St. Boniface himself; and it was, perhaps, subsequently that she succeeded St. Hadeloga at Kitzengen. It was in this latter abbey that she completed her earthly course, and closed a holy life in a peaceful and saintly death." [16]
  12. Born in Huesca in Spain, together with St Mercutialis he went to France and was killed by the Saracens.
  13. Born in Querfurt in Germany, he accompanied the half-Greek Emperor Otto III to Italy in 996 and became a monk there. He became Archbishop of Mersburg and was sent to enlighten the heathen Prussians. He was martyred with eighteen companions.
  14. "In Prussia, St. Bruno, bishop of the Ruthenians and martyr, who, preaching the Gospel in that region, was arrested by impious men, had his hands and feet cut off and was beheaded." [13]
