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. "Also, the holy martyrs Alexander, bishop, Heracilus, soldier, and their companions."
  3. There is no record of his life and activity as a bishop, nor the period in which he flourished. However there are two different local traditions ascribed to him, taken from his acolouthia. In one local tradition it was widely reported that this holy shepherd was a Bishop in Edessa, Syria. Yet another Cypriot tradition relates that Eulavios was the Bishop of Lambousa (ancient Lapithos), and that he had nothing to do with the saint from Edessa.
  4. "At Fermo, in the Marches, St. Philip, bishop and martyr." His relics are enshrined in the Cathedral.
  5. By tradition born near Cardiff in Wales, he became the first Bishop of Rouen in France.
  6. "Mellon had a vision, witnessed also by the Pope, commanding him to go and preach the Gospel in Neustria, or Normandy. He set out in obedience to the heavenly summons, and received in an extraordinary degree the gift of miracles, for the accomplishment of his work. Through his unwearied zeal and courage, and the many undeniable wonders wrought by him, the Faith of Christ made rapid progress in Rouen, and the Saint was happily constrained to erect a number of churches for their service. Mellon governed his church for many years, and when he felt his end approaching, retired to a solitary spot, where before long an Angel was sent to convey to him the happy message of his speedy deliverance."
  7. "At Rouen, St. Melanius, bishop, who was ordained by pope St. Stephen, and sent thither to preach the Gospel."
  8. "At Verona, St. Verecundus, bishop and confessor."
  9. Born in Rennes in Brittany, he became bishop there in 703. About the year 720 he made a pilgrimage to Rome and ended his days as a hermit in Berceto in Italy.
  10. Two sisters born in Adahuesca in Huesca in Spain. Daughters of a Muslim father and Christian mother, they were raised as Christians. After the death of their father, their mother married another Muslim, who brutally persecuted them and had them imprisoned. They were finally beheaded in Huesca during the persecution of Abderrahman II.
  11. "At Huesca, in Spain, the holy virgins Nunilo and Alodia, sisters, who endured martyrdom by being condemned to capital punishment by the Saracens for the confession of the faith."
  12. "In Tuscany, St. Donatus, of Scotland, bishop of Fiesoli."
