Saint of the Day – 30 November – Saint Constantius (5th Century) Confessor of Rome.
The Roman Martyrology reads today: “At Rome, St Constantius, Confessor, who strongly opposed the Pelagians and by enduring many injuries from them, gained a place among holy Confessors.”
Nothing is known of the background or detail of this Saint, so much so that it appears uncertain whether he was a Priest or a Layman.
However, he was certainly a Confessor of Christ by his vehement and ardent defence against the heresy of the Pelagians.
He is proudly listed in the Roman Martyrology for today and has gained the auspicious title of Confessor.
Today, 31 years ago, 30 November 1993, the late Bishop Daniel L Dolan was Consecrated as a Bishop. Remembering this zealous and loving Shepherd and praying for his eternal rest.

Saint of the Day – 30 November – St Constantius of Rome (Died c418) Priest Confessor, Defender of the Faith against the heresy of Pelagianism (often called the seed of Calvinism).
The Roman Martyrology reads today: “At Rome, St Constantius, Confessor, who strongly opposed the Pelagian Heretics and by enduring many injuries from them, gained a place among holy Confessors.”
Constantius was a Priest in Rome. In defending the Faith, he suffered greatly under his opponents, the Pelagians but he was not martyred as some believe.
