Saint Magnus fell asleep in peace, while praying.

The verse of the synaxarion says that Magnus gave up his soul in prayer, showing that he had asked for the end of his life. No other details of his life, or of the place or time in which he lived, are preserved. He is commemorated on 28 June, according to the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style), together with the venerable Symeon.
