Life
Holy Martyr Nicephorus suffered at Corinth in the persecution of Decius, in the third century, and is commemorated together with Victorinus, Victor and the other martyrs of the city.
The sources keep only this of him, as a member of the group of seven martyrs of Corinth. His commemoration is kept on 31 January in the Western calendar. He is a saint of the undivided Church, honoured without synodal canonization. He is not to be confused with Holy Martyr Nicephorus of Antioch.
Commemorated the same day January 31
