Commemorated on March 21
Saint
Cyril was born in Antioch. He was a disciple of the Apostle Peter (June
29, January 16), who installed him as Bishop of Catania in Sicily. St
Cyril wisely guided his flock; he was pious, and the Lord granted him
the gift of wonderworking. By his prayer the bitter water in a certain
spring lost its bitterness and became drinkable. This miracle converted
many pagans to Christianity. St Cyril died in old age and was buried in
Sicily.
