Pompianus

Saint Pompianus is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 22 July (new style), together with Saint Menelaus.

Menelaus, according to a Greek synaxarion site, was born about the year 700 at Presigny in France, of a noble family. A prince's son, he fled the marriage planned by his father, with two friends, Savininus and Constas, and settled in the ruined monastery of Saint Menas, then came under the guidance of Saint Eudes; the restored monastery later took his name. About Pompianus the sources consulted contain no particulars: neither place nor time.
