Life

Holy Hierarch Innocent is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 25 May (new style) in a list of bishops: Innocent, Aldhelm, Dionysius and Zenobius.

The list gathers these hierarchs on one date, but the sources consulted do not say which see Innocent held or when he lived. The Greek calendar for the day places him beside Aldhelm (bishop of Sherborne in England), Dionysius of Milan and Zenobius of Florence, which points to a circle of western bishops. A Greek synaxarion site also records Saint Innocent of Kherson (died 1857) on the same day, but it is not certain that the list refers to him.
