Saint Martin I succeeded Pope Theodore.
Having convoked at Rome a Council, where The Monothelites, who only admitted a Divine Will in Christ, were condemned, he was treacherously seized by order of the heretics Heraclius and Constant and carried away to Constantinople.
After enduring much suffering and humiliation, he was exiled to Chersonesus, where he died of fatigue in 655 A.D.
His body, Translated to Rome, was laid in The Church of Saint Sylvester and Saint Martin, the Apostle of Gaul.
Mass: Sacerdótes Dei.
