Life

Saint Aerus, called the bishop, is commemorated on 6 December (new style, the Greek calendar). His commemoration appears only in the Small Euchologion or Hagiasmatarion, the 1959 edition of the Apostolike Diakonia, with no further information; nowhere else is he mentioned.

The Greek source notes that the saint's existence, biographical data and day of the feast have not been verified, and that he may be the same as the one commemorated on 8 December.
