Our Holy Father Constantine of Synnada.

Commemorated December 26 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

He was a Jew who came to the Christian faith. When the Cross was made on his head at his baptism, it remained visible there till his death in Constantinople in the seventh century. He is famed for his fasting and for his many miracles. For seven years before his death, he foretold the day of it.
