Saint Apronien
Feast: 2 February (not on the universal Roman calendar; kept in the Roman Martyrology or local calendars)
Who they were
At Rome, on the Via Salaria, the suffering of St. Apronianus, a notary. While he was still a heathen, he was leading St. Sisinius from prison to bring him before Laodicius the prefect, when he heard a voice from heaven: "Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." He believed and was baptized, and afterward was condemned to death for confessing the Lord.
The miracles
There was never a formal cause: he has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.
Why that counted as sanctity
