Feria
(The Illustraion is of All Saints Church, Earls Barton, Northants, UK, stolen from the Church at the protestant deformation.)
Before the Johannine Reforms, today was the Vigil of All Saints or All Hallow's Eve (Hallowe'en). Now it is simply a Feria with no Commemoration. The Roman Martyrology follows:
At Rome, the Saints Ampliatus, Urbanus, and Narcissus, who are mentioned by St. Paul in his Epistle to the Romans. They were put to death by the Jews and Gentiles for the Gospel of Christ.
At Constantinople, St. Stachis, bishop who was consecrated first bishop of that city by the blessed apostle Andrew.
At Saint Quentin in France, the martyr St. Quentin, a Roman citizen and senator, who suffered under Emperor Maximian. By the revelation of an angel, his body was found incorrupt after a lapse of fifty-five years.
At Milan, St. Antoninus, bishop and confessor.
At Ratisbon in Bavaria, St. Wolfgang, bishop.
At Palma, in the island of Majorca, St. Alphonsus Rodriguez, a lay brother of the Society of Jesus, whom Leo XIII canonized because of his remarkable humility and constant love of mortification.
At Rome, the translation of blessed Nemesius, deacon, and his daughter, the virgin Lucilla, who were beheaded on the 25th of August.
And elsewhere in divers places, many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
R. Thanks be to God.
