Sainte IA, Irlandaise de nation, martyre en Cornouailles / Cornwall (vers 450).
Troparion of St Ia
Tone 5
Thy life and mission
were pleasing to God, most pious Ia,
for seeing thee left behind in Ireland,
He miraculously transported thee across the sea to Cornwall on a leaf.
Wherefore O Saint, pray to God for us
that we may never give way to despair
but ever trust in His great mercy.
Kontakion of St Ia
Tone 8
By a miracle, God showed that the first should be last and the last, first, O righteous Ia,
and therefore we look to thee as a symbol of Gospel truth,
ever praising thy illustrious memory.

St. Colman of Kilmacduagh, Bishop- Born at Corker, Kiltartan, Galway, Ireland, c. 550; died 632
Troparion of St Colman of Kilmacduagh
Tone 8
Rejecting the nobility of thy birth, O Father Colman,
thou didst seek God in the solitude of desert places.
Thy virtue, like a beacon, drew men unto thee
and thou didst guide them into the way of salvation.
Guide us also by thy prayers, that our souls may be saved.
A Prayer:
May God's angels guard us
and save us till day's end,
protected by God and Mary
and Mac Duach1 and Mac Daire
and Colm Cille
till days' end.
Aingil De dar gcoimhdeacht
's dar sabhail aris go fuin;
ar coimri De is Mhuire,
Mhic Duach is Mhic Daire
agus Colm Cille
aris go fuin.
1 St. Colman MacDuagh

St. Anatolius of Salins, Bishop

Saint Cuanan Ghlinne of Moville, February 3February 3 is the commemoration of an eighth-century successor to Saint Finnian at the Monastery of Moville, County Down, Saint Cuanan or Cuanna. Canon O'Hanlon records that he also seems to have had a connection with County Wexford:
February 3 is the commemoration of an eighth-century successor to Saint Finnian at the Monastery of Moville, County Down, Saint Cuanan or Cuanna. Canon O'Hanlon records that he also seems to have had a connection with County Wexford:
St. Cuanan or Cuanna, surnamed Glinn, or Glinne, Abbot of Moville, County of Down.
[Eighth Century.]
February 3 is the feast day of Saint Caoilfionn, yet another of our obscure Irish female saints. In his account below, Canon O'Hanlon relies on the seventeenth-century Martyrology of Donegal for clues as to her identity and concludes with some pious conjectures of his own:
St. Caoilfionn, Virgin.
