Nono Kaléndas Februárii Luna tértia décima Anno Dómini 2024
January 24th 2024, the 13th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
Holy Timothy, the disciple of the blessed Apostle Paul, by whom he was ordained Bishop of Ephesus. After many contendings for Christ, because he rebuked them that were offering sacrifice to Diana, they stoned him, and a short while thereafter he fell asleep in the Lord, (in the year 97.)
At Antioch, (in the year 250,) holy Babilas, Patriarch of that city. After he had oftentimes glorified God by the sufferings and torments which he bore, and in the persecution under the Emperor Decius, he ended his glorious life in iron fetters, which he commanded should be buried with him. It is recorded also that there suffered with him three children Urban, Prilidian, and Epolonius whom he had instructed in the faith of Christ.
At Neo-Caesarea, the holy martyrs Mardonius, Musonius, Eugenius, and Metellus, these all were burnt and their ashes thrown into the river.
At Foligno, holy Felician, who was ordained by Pope Victor Bishop of that city, and after many labours was crowned with martyrdom in extreme old age, in the persecution under the Emperor Decius.
Likewise the holy martyrs Thyrsus, (third century,) and Projectus, (Bishop of Clermont, in the year 674.)
At Bologna, (in the third century,) holy Zama, the first Bishop of that city, who was ordained by the holy Roman Pontiff Denis, and there wonderfully spread the Christian faith.
Likewise (in the sixth century,) the blessed Abbot Suran, who flourished in holiness in the time of the Lombards.
℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
