Sts. Marcellinus and Peter

by Catholic Lane Editor on Jun 02, 2015 in Saint of the Day

Little is know about these Saints, except that they died c. 304, during the persecution of the Roman Emperor, Diocletian.   Marcellinus was a priest and Peter an exorcist.

Pope Damasus I, the oldest source, claimed that he heard the story of these two martyrs from their executioner who became a Christian after their deaths.
