Life
Eusebius was a priest at Rome in the time of the Arian emperor Constantius. The Roman Martyrology says that for defending the Catholic faith he was shut up in a room of his own house, where he stayed seven months in constant prayer and rested in peace. His body was moved by the priests Gregory and Orosius and buried in the cemetery of Callistus on the Appian Way. He is counted a confessor. He is a saint of the undivided Church, commemorated in the Roman Martyrology.
