Life
Saint Felicissimus of Carthage was a confessor of the faith in the persecution of Decius, in the third century.
The available sources say only that he confessed the faith at Carthage during that persecution, and no details of his life or end are kept. He is commemorated on 26 October in the Western calendar, the same day as Rogatian and Felicissimus of Africa, with whom he may be one and the same person. Honoured in the West, he is counted a saint of the undivided Church, without synodal canonization.
