Saint Irenaeus
- Memorial
- 26 March
- Profile
- Deacon at Pentapolis, Lybia.
Tortured with
Saint Theodore,
Saint Serapion and
Saint Ammonius; the group had their tongues cut out and were left for dead, but they all survived and died years later of natural causes.
However, because they were willing to die, and because there were attempts to kill them, they are considered martyrs.
