  2. "At Smyrna, the Saints Apelles and Lucius, who were among the first disciples of Christ."[4]
  3. Saint Clement - Nov 23 (In the East: Jan 4, Apr 22, Sept 10 and Nov 25).
    One of the Seventy Apostles, he was the third Pope of Rome. Consecrated by the Apostle Peter, he is mentioned in Philippians 4,3 and wrote a letter to the Church of Corinth which still exists. He is venerated as a martyr and he is remembered in Rome by the church of San Clemente, which may have been built on the site of his home.
  4. "At Anastasiopolis, St. Theodore, a bishop renowned for miracles."[4]
  5. Like most Orthodox in Rome at this time, he was a Greek. He became Pope and corresponded with the Church of Corinth and traditionally he is regarded as a martyr.
  6. "At Lyons, in the persecution of Antoninus Verus, St. Epipodius, who was arrested with Alexander (April 24), his companion, and after undergoing severe torments, consummated his martyrdom, by decapitation."[4]
  7. "Ceadwalla, prince of Wessex, being himself as yet unbaptised, conquered the Isle of Wight, and meditated the entire extirpation of the pagan inhabitants. The two sons of Arwald, the ruler of the island, were sent for refuge to the mainland, but were betrayed, and ordered by Ceadwalla to be immediately put to death. The Abbot Cynibert of Hreutford, or Redbridge, hearing of this, hastened to the conqueror, to beg that, if they must needs die, he might at least be allowed to instruct and baptise them. This petition was granted, and the holy man instructed them, and fortified them with the holy Sacraments."[16]
  8. She was described as 'a true mother to all her nuns'.
  9. St. Ekaterina (Malkov-Panina) was born on May 15, 1889 in Finland in a family with six children. The future saint was distinguished by kindness and tenderness from an early age, and she loved to visit their local monastery. She moved to Estonia in 1919 with her family and on July 5, 1922 was accepted as a nun of Pukhtitsa Monastery. She was tonsured as a nun of the monastery in 1966. On May 5, 1968, on the Sunday of the Holy Myrrhbearers, Mother Ekaterina peacefully reposed in the Lord. There are numerous known cases of miracles and healings by her prayers, both during and after hear earthly life.[18]
