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. ^ "A virgin-martyr in Rome, probably under Valerian. She was especially venerated by Sicilians and Greeks, both having relics, the former in Mineo and the latter in Constantinople."[5]
  3. ^ "Also, at Borne, St. Agrippina, virgin and martyr, under the emperor Valerian. Her body was carried to Sicily, where it works many miracles."[6]
  4. ^ "This blessed martyr was a virgin at Rome, who, for the faith of Christ, was stripped by the inhuman magistrate and scourged to death. Her body was carried to Sicily, and thence to Constantinople."[7]
  5. ^ This local saint is listed in hagiology of the Metropolis of Aetolia and Acarnania, in Greece, as "Venerable Barbaros the Pentapolitis", on June 23rd.
  6. ^ "At Sutri, in Tuscany, St. Felix, priest. By the command of the prefect Turcius, he was struck on the mouth with a stone until he breathed his last."[6]
  7. ^ "At Rome, in the reign of Julian the Apostate, St. John, a priest, who was decapitated on the old Salarian road, before an idol of the sun. His body was buried near those of other martyrs by the blessed priest Concordius."[6]
  8. ^ Born in Suffolk in England, she was a daughter of King Anna of East Anglia and a sister of Sts Saxburgh, Ethelburgh and Withburgh. Twice married, she remained a virgin. She became a nun at Coldingham and then went to Ely where she became abbess. She lived a life of great holiness and simplicity. Her body remained incorrupt after death and her hand-relic survives in Ely to this day.
  9. ^ "In England, St. Audry, queen and virgin, who departed for heaven with a great renown for sanctity and miracles. Her body was found without corruption eleven years afterwards."[6]
  10. ^ Count of Hainault in Belgium, he married St Aye, but by mutual consent they entered monasteries. Hidulf became a monk at Lobbes which he had helped to found.
  11. ^ "In the Scottish Menology of Thomas Dempster, there is an entry of St. Hildulph, Bishop of Treves, and of his companions, as named, at the 23rd of June. The Bollandists also notice this commemoration, but defer giving his Acts to the 11th of July. We are told by Surius, that when Dagobert ruled over the kingdom of the Franks, St. Florentius with the Blessed Argobast, Theodatus, and Hildulph came from Scotia to Alsace. Thomas Dempster has some other notices in his Scottish History."[22]
  12. ^ Probably born in Bertigny in Haute Marne, he became a monk at Hornbach, before he became Bishop of Toul in the east of France in 756. See:
  13. ^ See: (in Russian) Дионисий Полоцкий. Википедии. (Russian Wikipedia).
  14. ^ "The enraged turks massacred the metropolite of Crete, Gerasimos Pardalis, and five more bishops: Neofitos of Knossos, Joachim of Herronissos, Ierotheos of Lambis, Zacharias of Sitia and Kallinikos, the titular bishop of Diopolis."[31] See:
  15. ^ On June 23, 1821, a Holy Synod took place at the Metropolis of Crete, at the Agios Minas Cathedral, at which the Archbishop of Crete started to read a letter sent by the Ottoman Vizier. Enemies who were lying in wait seized upon the church and murdered the Bishops, 17 priests and 5 hagiorite fathers from the Vatopedi monastery. They also murdered 300 Christians who were in attendance. From there, they persecuted the remaining Christians who were dispersed in the city, mercilessly killing any they found in the streets, where they also met Bishop Hierotheos of Lambis, who they murdered together with his deacon. On the next day, in the village "Epano Phourni", which was the seat of the Bishop of Petra, Bishop Ioakeim was shot outside the Church of the Theotokos.[29]
