    St. Januarius

    It was during the persecution of Diocletian, in 305, that Saint Januarius, who was Bishop of Benevento, Italy, and other loyal Christians suffered martyrdom for the Faith. Upon learning that Sosius, Deacon of Misenum, Proculus, Deacon of Pozzuoli, and some prominent laymen had been imprisoned for professing their Faith, Januarius determined to go to see them in order to give them comfort and encouragement.

    The inquisitive keepers reported that an eminent person from Benevento had visited the Christian prisoners. Timothy, who governed that district, ordered that Januarius, whom he found to be the visitor, should be arrested and brought before him at Nola. The Bishop’s Deacon, Festus, and Desiderius, who were visiting the Bishop at the time, were also apprehended and shared in Januarius’ sufferings. Soon afterwards, when Timothy went to Pozzuoli, these three confessors, loaded with irons, were obliged to walk before his chariot to that town. They were cast into the same prison where some other loyal Christians were being detained; they had been condemned by the Emperor to be thrown to the wild beasts and where awaiting execution of the sentence.

    Surviving Wild Animals

    The day after St. Januarius and his companions arrived all were exposed in the amphitheater, but not one was harmed by the wild animals. The people, amazed, attributed their preservation to magic. The Martyrs were then condemned to be beheaded, and the sentence was executed near Pozzuoli. About the year 400 the relics of St. Januarius were translated to Naples, which city honors him as its patron Saint. The people give him credit for delivering them from the plague in 1497, and for saving their city on several occasions when it was in danger of destruction from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

    Three times a year-on his Feast day September 19, December 16, and on the first Sunday in May-a sealed phial which contains the congealed blood of St. Januarius, when placed near the Martyr’s head, liquefies and bubbles up. This miraculous event has occurred, with rare exceptions, ever since the translation of the Saint’s body to Naples.
