"Who are Certain Saints Mentioned in the Holy Mass?"
In the Communicantes
The text
In communion with those whose memory we venerate,
especially the glorious ever-Virgin Mary,
Mother of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ,
and blessed Joseph, her Spouse,
your blessed Apostles and Martyrs,
Peter and Paul, Andrew,
James, John,
Thomas, James, Philip,
Bartholomew, Matthew,
Simon and Jude;
Linus, Cletus, Clement, Sixtus,
Cornelius, Cyprian,
Lawrence, Chrysogonus,
John and Paul,
Cosmas and Damian
and all your Saints;
we ask that through their merits and prayers,
in all things we may be defended
by your protecting help.
Sorted list
- The Holy Family
- - Mary
- - Joseph
- Twelve Apostles
Twelve apostles are listed--but Paul is a second-generation apostle, not one of the original Twelve!
- - Peter and Paul (!)
- - Andrew
- - James and John
- - Thomas
- - James
- - Philip
- - Bartholomew
- - Matthew
- - Simon and Jude
- Five martyred popes, a bishop, a deacon, and some laymen
| Saint | Lived | Feast | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Linus | |||
| Cletus | |||
| Clement | ~35 - 99 AD | 23 November | Drowned during reign of Trajan. Knew Peter? Consecrated bishop and appointed successor by Peter? Author of an epistle to the church in Corinth circa 96 AD. |
| Sixtus | "Sixtus" sounds like "sixth," but the proper Latin for "sixth" is "sextus." "Sixtus" was more probably from the Greek word, "xystus," meaning "polished." Confusion reigns because Sixtus is the sixth pope in the Catholic list of popes (Annuario Pontificio). | ||
| Cornelius | died June 253. | September 16 | Pope (251-253) and martyr. Rejected re-baptism of apostates by Novatian. Martyred with Cyprian. |
| Cyprian | 210-258 | September 16 | Martyr. Supported Cornelius against Novatian and anabaptists. |
| Lawrence | |||
| Chrysogonus | |||
| John and Paul | |||
| Cosmas and Damian |
