Life
Holy Right-Believing Oda of Amay (also called Ode) is venerated at Amay in present-day Belgium as a founder of churches. She reposed around 723. She is a saint of the undivided Church, known from the Western calendars.
The calendars commemorate on 28 November an Oda of Brabant, called the blind princess of Scotland, who tradition says was cured of blindness at the tomb of Saint Lambert at Liège and withdrew as a hermit in Brabant, at Sint-Oedenrode; she is held to have reposed around 726. The sources consulted do not make clear whether this is the same person.
She is commemorated on 23 October, the liturgical date in the Orthodox calendar (the same day number on the old and new calendars).
