Life

Saint Saturninus the Martyr is commemorated on 1 April (new style, the calendar of the Church of Greece) in the group of the martyrs Alexander, Dionysius, Ingeniana, Panterus (also called Pantainos), Parthenius and Saturninus, on the day when the Church also celebrates Saint Mary of Egypt. Their names stand in Western sources; they are therefore saints of the undivided Church.

The sources consulted give no other details about his life or his suffering.
