28 February

AT Rome, the birthday of the holy martyrs Macarius, Rufinus, Justus, and Theophilus.—At Alexandria, the passion of the Saints Caerealis, Pupulus, Gaius, and Serapion.—In the same city, in the reign of the emperor Valerian, the commemoration of the holy priests, deacons, and other Christians in great number, who encountered death most willingly by nursing the victims of a most deadly pestilence then raging. They have been generally revered as martyrs by the pious faithful.—In the territory of Lyons, on Mount Jura, the demise of St. Romanus, abbot, who was the first to lead the eremitical life there. His reputation for virtues and miracles brought under his guidance numerous monks.—At Pavia, the translation, from the island of Sardinia, of the body of St. Augustine, bishop, by Luitprand, king of the Lombards.

And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors and holy virgins.

Thanks be to God.
