Clement

Holy Apostle Clement, one of the Seventy Apostles, was bishop at Sardica (Sardis), once a wealthy city of Lydia in Asia Minor. His name is mentioned by the holy Apostle Paul in the Epistle to the Philippians (Philippians 4:3).

Addressing a "true yokefellow", Paul asks him to help those who have laboured with him for the Gospel, together with Clement and his other fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life. This is all the Azbyka page says about his life; it gives no other events.

Saint Clement is commemorated on 17 January, with the Synaxis of the Seventy Apostles, and on 5 May and 23 September, in the new style.
