- 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"). - "At Colossae, in Phrygia, during the reign of Nero, Saints Philemon and Apphias, disciples of St. Paul. When the Gentiles rushed into the church on the feast of Diana, they were arrested whilst the other Christians fled, and by the command of the governor Artocles, were scourged, let down into a pit up to their waist, and overwhelmed with stones."[7]
- Name days celebrated today include:
- Philemon (Φιλήμων).
- "Saint Maximus the Martyr the Capitularius" (Tax Collector). Maximus was prison guard of a prison in Rome. He believed in Christ through the witness of Saints Valerian and Cecelia, confessed his faith and suffered a martyric death (Greek: αἰκισθεῖς τελειοῦται).[8]
- "AT Rome, St. Cecilia, virgin and martyr, who brought to the faith of Christ her spouse Valerian and his brother Tiburtius, and encouraged them to martyrdom. After their death, being arrested by order of Almachius, prefect of the city, and exposed to the fire, from which she came out uninjured, she terminated her glorious sufferings by the sword, in the time of the emperor Marcus Aurelius Severus Alexander."[7]
- One of the most famous virgin-martyrs of Rome. Having suffered for Christ, she was buried in the cemetery of St Callistus. Her relics are beneath the altar of the basilica of St Cecilia in Trastevere. She is the patron-saint of musicians.[11]
- "At Antioch, in Pisidia, the martyrdom of the Saints Mark and Stephen, under the emperor Diocletian."[7]
- "The Holy Martyr Procopius was a reader in the Church of Jerusalem. He led a strict ascetic life, for which he received from the Lord the ability to cast out demons. The zealous preacher of the Word of God was arrested and brought to trial in Palestinian Caesarea. For his refusal to offer sacrifice to idols, he was beheaded."[16]
- Because he confessed Christ, they threw him as food for the wild beasts. But miraculously he was delivered unharmed and reposed in peace.
- Parisian Codex 1578 records that he was from Cappadocia.
- Tied up and left to die on a downward slope (declivity).
