July 23,
Christian feast day: Rasyphus and Ravennus
Rasyphus and Ravennus
Saints Rasyphus (Rasiphus) and Ravennus are venerated as Christian saints and martyrs. According to Christian tradition, they were natives of Britain who fled their country during the Anglo-Saxon invasions. They settled in Gaul and became hermits. They were then martyred, perhaps by Goths who adhered to Arianism.
