I thought I would bring this to your attention:
How many relics survive from the Apostolic times in England?
On March 15, the Holy Orthodox Catholic Church celebrates the feast day of
Holy Apostle Aristobulus of the Seventy, Bishop of Britain
Apolytikion: Third Tone
O Holy Apostle Aristobulus, intercede with the merciful God that He grant unto our souls forgiveness of offenses.
Reading:
Saint Aristobulus, the brother of Saint Barnabas, was ordained to be bishop in Britain by the Apostle Paul, who mentions him in his epistle to the Romans (16:10). He suffered many afflictions at the hands of the pagans, but also brought many to Christ. Having established the Church there, he finally reposed in peace.
