Life
Holy Martyr Vitalis was a slave and is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 4 November (new style), as Vitalis the Slave.
The calendar enters him among the saints of the day, beside the merciful king John Vatatzes and the venerable Ioannicius the Great. The sources consulted do not say what he suffered, in what place or in what time; what remains is his name and the fact that he was a slave.
