Troparion of St Gistilian
Tone 1
Following the commandments of Christ thou didst instruct many in the True Faith,
O Father Gistilian,
establishing churches and monasteries to serve the faithful.
Pray for us, O Saint,
that we may profit by thine example
for the salvation of our souls.
Kontakion of St Gistilian

Truly we hymn thee, O Father Gistilian,
for thou didst labour to strengthen the church in Wales,
giving thy life to this noble and God-pleasing cause.
Ever blessing thy memory,
we implore thy prayers for us sinners.
On March 4 the Irish calendars commemorate a saint Philip, whom they style Bishop of Cluain Bainbh, but no other details are given. The Martyrology of Donegal reads:
4. G. QUARTO NONAS MARTII. 4.
PHILIP, Bishop, of Cluain Bainbh.
March 4 is the commemoration of Saint Muicin of Moyne. The 17th-century hagiologist, Father John Colgan, was convinced that Saint Muicin of Moyne was a disciple of Saint Patrick. This view, however, was not without its own difficulties, as Canon O'Hanlon explains:
ST. MUKNA, MUICIN, OR MUKINUS, BISHOP OF MAIGHIN, OR MOYNE, COUNTY OF MAYO.
