Saint
Titus of Byzantium
Hierarch of Byzantium, venerated in the Orthodox calendar.
Life
Holy Hierarch Titus of Byzantium, a bishop, was a man of holy life and occupied the episcopal throne of Byzantium from the year 242 to 272. He guided Domnus and his sons Probus and Metrophanes toward a life pleasing to God. Seeing Domnus's wish to labour for the Lord, Titus ordained him a priest.
After the death of Titus, the episcopal throne of Byzantium was occupied first by Domnus and then by his pious sons Probus and Metrophanes. Saint Titus is commemorated on 17 June, in the new style, but his name is not included in the present calendar of the Russian Orthodox Church.
