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 Exuperius and Zoe, his wife, with their sons, Cyriacus and Theodulus, who suffered under the emperor Adrian."[2]
  3. ^ "The same day, St. Vindemial, bishop and martyr, who with the holy bishops Eugenius and Longinus, combated the Arians by his teaching and miracles, and was decapitated by order of king Hunneric."[2]
  4. ^ "ST. ULTAN was one of the brothers of St. Fursey and followed him from Ireland, and lived with him for some time in his Monastery of Burghcastle, in Suffolk. Afterwards, feeling himself called to a life of solitude, he retired to a hermitage in the same kingdom of East Anglia, whither he was followed somewhat later by St. Fursey himself. These holy brothers lived together in great austerity, continual prayer, and the labour of their hands, until their tranquillity was disturbed by the outbreak of fresh wars. St. Fursey then retired to France, but St. Ultan appears to have remained in England until after the death of his brother, when he, with his other brother, St. Foilan, went abroad and was received by St. Gertrude of Nievelles, who gave him land to build the Abbey of Fosse, in the diocese of Liege. After the martyrdom of his brother St. Foilan, he passed to Peronne, where the relics of St. Fursey were preserved. He was there chosen Abbot, and continued to govern the two houses of Fosse and Peronne until the time of his death. He was buried at Fosse, and greatly venerated as a Saint, especially in these two monasteries."[7]
  5. ^ Also commemorated on January 18.[10]
  6. ^ Also known as "Afanassiy Lubensky - Sidyachey," he was the chief patron of Poltava. He died in Ukraine on his way to Constantinople and was buried in the sitting position, enthroned, thus "Athanasius the Sitting." He was glorified by the Metropolitan of Kyiv as a Wonderworker.[12]
  7. ^ On February 15, 2018, the Holy Synod of the Romanian Patriarchate resolved that the Blessed Matrona of Moscow also be included in the Calendar of the Romanian Orthodox Church for veneration.[15]
  8. ^ "AT Alexandria, the birthday of St. Athanasius, bishop of that city and Doctor of the Church, most celebrated for sanctity and learning. Although almost all the world had formed a conspiracy to persecute him, he courageously defended the Catholic faith, from the reign of Constantine to that of Valens, against emperors, governors, and a multitude of Arian bishops, whose perfidious attacks forced him to wander as an exile over the whole earth without finding a place of security. At length, however, he was restored to his church, and after fighting many combats, and winning many crowns by his patience, he departed for heaven in the forty-sixth year of his priesthood, in the time of the emperors Valentinian and Valens."[2]
