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. ^ Saint Demetrius was tortured for the sake of Christ by Pomplius the governor in the village of Daodus, and then he was beheaded.[5]
  3. ^ He was one of the 318 Fathers of the First Ecumenical Council of Nicaea, in Bithynia. He became an ascetic and also a wonderworker. He reposed peacefully.
  4. ^ The memory of these three martyrs is preserved in Parisian Codex 1578 and in Patmian Codex 266, along with their companions.
  5. ^ "The same day, the birthday of St. Eugenius, bishop of Toledo, and martyr, disciple of blessed Denis the Areopagite. Having consummated his martyrdom near Paris, he received from our Lord a crown for his blessed sufferings. His body was afterwards conveyed to Toledo."[15]
  6. ^ "At Nola, in Campania, blessed Felix, bishop and martyr, who was renowned for miracles from the fifteenth year of his age. He terminated the combats of his martyrdom with thirty others, under the governor Marcian."[15]
  7. ^ Born in Wales, he moved to Brittany and settled at a place called Aleth, now St Malo, where he was the first bishop.
  8. ^ "In Bretagne, the birthday of St. Malo, bishop, who was glorious for miracles from his early years."[15]
  9. ^ Born in Leinster in Ireland, he was taken as a slave to the Orkney Islands by Norse raiders, but managed to escape to Scotland. He then went on pilgrimage to Rome and became a monk in Farfa Abbey in Italy. From there he went to the monastery of Rheinau Abbey in Switzerland, where he lived as a hermit for twenty-two years. His relics still exist.
  10. ^ See: (in Russian) Филипп Рабангский. Википедии. (Russian Wikipedia).
  11. ^ St. Paisius was one of the greatest teachers of the spirituality of the Jesus Prayer and translator of Patristic texts on prayer, St Paisius renewed monastic life in several Orthodox lands and had disciples from ten nationalities. His disciples prayed up to 14 hours per day as they united prayer with reading and physical work.[20]
  12. ^ See: (in Russian) http://www.pravenc.ru/text/166597.html ГРИГОРИЙ]. Православная Энциклопедия под редакцией Патриарха Московского и всея Руси Кирилла (электронная версия). (Orthodox Encyclopedia - Pravenc.ru).
  13. ^ There is some confusion in the sources as to whether this refers to 'Justinian and Theodora' or to 'Justin and Euphemia'.
  14. ^ As a New Calendarist, and therefore a member of an ecumenist "member church of the "World Council of Churches" who died after the 1983 Anathema against Ecumenism (issued by the Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) under the Omophorion of Metropolitan Philaret of New York), they can not be recognised as a saint by any Canonical True Orthodox, Authentic Orthodox or Genuine Orthodox Synod or individual believer. Such people are, therefore, classified as "ecumenist heretics" instead. http://orthodoxinfo.com/ecumenism/ecum_anath.aspx. In addition he made the error of commemorating some post-great Schism pseudo-saints falsely as saints and made icons of them, such as Francis of Assisi.
