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. "At Ravenna, St. Eleuchadius, bishop and confessor."[15]
  3. According to the entry in the Roman Martyrology (1916):
    • "AT Rome, on the Flaminian road, in the time of the emperor Claudius, the birthday of blessed Valentine, priest and martyr, who after having cured and instructed many persons, was beaten with clubs and beheaded."[15]
    According to the entry in The Book of Saints, by Ramsgate Abbey (1921):
    • "A Roman priest who, with St. Marius and his family, assisted the Martyrs in the persecution under the Emperor Claudius II. He was beheaded as a Christian about A.D. 270. Modern research has raised many doubts about the genuineness of the tradition concerning him. The custom of sending so-called "Valentines" on Feb. 14 has no connection with the history of the Saint, but is probably of Pagan origin."[16]
  4. According to the entry in the Roman Martyrology (1916):
    • "At Teramo, St. Valentine, bishop and martyr, who was scourged, committed to prison, and as he remained unshaken in his faith, was taken out of his dungeon in the dead of night and beheaded by order of Placidus, prefect of the city."[15]
    According to the entry in The Book of Saints, by Ramsgate Abbey (1921):
    • "A Bishop of Terni, or perhaps of Teramo, in Italy, who suffered martyrdom in the same persecution as the priest St. Valentine of Rome, though it would seem two or three years later."[16]
    Various dates are given for the martyrdom or martyrdoms: 269, 270, or 273.[20]
  5. "In the same place, the holy martyrs Proculus, Ephebus and Apollonius, who, whilst watching by the body of St. Valentine, were arrested and put to the sword by the command of the ex-consul Leontius."[15]
  6. "At Alexandria, the holy martyrs Bassus, Anthony, and Protolicus, who were cast into the sea."[15]
  7. "Also, the holy martyrs Cyrion, priest, Bassian, lector, Agatho, exorcist, and Moses, who perished in the flames and took their flight to heaven."[15]
  8. A monk in one of the daughter monasteries of Montecassino in Italy. Forced to leave his monastery by the wars raging in the country, he became a hermit, until he was invited by the people of Sorrento to live among them. He did so as Abbot of St Agrippinus. He is now venerated as the patron-saint of that town.
  9. "At Sorrento, St. Anthony, abbot, who, when the monastery' of Monte Cassino was devastated by the Lombards, withdrew into a solitude of the neighborhood, where, celebrated for holiness, he passed calmly to his repose in God. His body is daily glorified by many miracles, and particularly by the deliverance of possessed persons."[15]
  10. He was the spiritual confessor of Patriarch Cyril V of Constantinople, whom he supported during the Council of Constantinople (1755-56) when the Patriarch decreed that Western converts must be baptized upon their reception into the Orthodox Church.
  11. On October 20, 2019, at the Protaton Church in Karyes on Mt. Athos, Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew announced that the glorification of four great 20th-century Athonite elders would soon proceed, including: He was officially glorified by the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate on March 9, 2020, to be commemorated each year either on: 1) the Saturday of the Ascetic Saints, which is a moveable feast on the last Saturday before Great Lent, or 2) on February 27th; ("ἡμέρα τῆς ἐτησίας ἱερᾶς μνήμης αὐτοῦ ἡ 27η μηνός Φεβρουαρίου").[40][41][42]
