Saint Adrian (also known as Hadrian), or Adrian of Nicomedia, was a Herculian Guard of the Roman Emperor Galerius Maximian. After becoming a convert to Christianity, with his wife Natalia, Adrian was Martyred at Nicomedia.
Saint Adrian and Saint Natalia lived in Nicomedia, during the time of Emperor Maximian, in the Early-4th Century. The twenty-eight-year-old Adrian was Head of the Praetorium.
It is said that, while presiding over the torture of a band of Christians, he asked them what reward they expected to receive from God. They replied:
It is said that, while presiding over the torture of a band of Christians, he asked them what reward they expected to receive from God. They replied:
"Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" (1 Corinthians 2:9).He was so amazed at their courage that he publicly confessed his Faith, though he had not himself yet been Baptised. He was then immediately imprisoned. He was forbidden visitors, but accounts state that his wife Natalia came to visit him, dressed as a boy, to ask for his Prayers when he entered Heaven.
The executioners wanted to burn the bodies of the dead, but a storm arose and quenched the fire.

This very ancient Feast was already Solemnised in the 7th-Century A.D., and Pope Innocent IV, to fulfil the Vow made by the Cardinals before the election of his predecessor, gave it an Octave at The First Council of Lyons in 1245.
Today's date (8 September) served to fix The Feast of The Immaculate Conception on 8 December.
Mary is inseparable from Jesus in The Divine Plan, wherefore The Liturgy applies to her what Holy Scripture says of The Eternal Wisdom, which is The Word "by Whom all was made".

Saint Laurence, born in Venice, Italy, in the 15th-Century, of the illustrious family of Giustiniani, preferred the severe austerities of the Cloister to a glorious alliance arranged for him by his mother.
Looking at a Crucifix, he exclaimed: "It is Thou, O Lord, Who art my hope, and in Thee is consolation and strength." He then entered among The Canons of Saint George of Alga.
All hiss life, he practised the greatest austerity and it was chiefly in assiduous Prayer that he was inflamed with ardent love for God and Devotion to his neighbour. He was called by Pope Eugenius IV to share in the full power of Christ's Priesthood: He was made Patriarch of Grado, but, Transferring the See to Venice, in 1451, he became the first Patriarch of this City.
He died in 1455, saying: "I am going to Thee, O Good Jesus."

Lawrence Giustiniani, C.R.S.A. (Italian: Lorenzo Giustiniani, 1 July 1381 – 8 January 1456), is Venerated as a Saint by The Catholic Church. He was a Canon Regular, who was appointed as a Bishop and became the first Patriarch of Venice.
He was a member of the well-known Giustiniani family, which includes several Saints. The piety of his mother seems to have served as an inspiration for his own Spirituality, as he chose of a life of Prayer and Service. In 1404, after he had been Ordained a Deacon, at the suggestion of an uncle who was a Priest, he joined a Community of Secular Canons following a Monastic form of life on the Island of San Giorgio in Alga. He was admired by his fellows for his poverty, mortification, and fervency of Prayer. Two years after his Ordination to The Catholic Priesthood, in 1407, the Community accepted The Rule of Saint Augustine. He was chosen to be the first Prior of the Community.
Giustiniani promoted the Constitutions which he had established for the Canons of Saint George, which was embraced by other Communities of Canons in the region, and, shortly thereafter, he became the Prior General of a Congregation. He was so zealous in spreading it that he was looked upon as if he were the actual Founder of The Order.
In 1433, Pope Eugene IV, one of the Founders of the Monastery of San Giorgio, named Giustiniani as the Bishop of Castello. He found a Diocese in shambles, and his Administration was marked by considerable growth and reform. In 1451, Pope Nicholas V united the Diocese of Castello with the Patriarchate of Grado, and the Seat of the Patriarchate was moved to Venice, making Giustiniani the first Patriarch of Venice, a Post that he held for over four years.
It was during Giustiniani's rule that Constantinople fell to Muslim forces. Due to their Centuries of close trading partnerships with the Byzantine Empire, the people of Venice were in panic as to their future. He took a leading role in helping the Republic of Venice to deal with the crisis, working with the Senate to help chart its future, as well as with the Clergy and people to calm them.
He died on 8 January 8 1456, and was Canonised by Pope Alexander VIII (1689–1691). His works, consisting of Sermons, Letters and ascetic Treatises, have been frequently reprinted.
Pope Innocent XII (1691–1700) inserted his Feast Day in The General Roman Calendar for Celebration on 5 September, the Anniversary of his elevation to the Episcopate.

It is possible that a small private Chapel stood on this site before the present building was commenced in the Late-13th-Century. The East End is unusual in that The Lady Chapel (more recently used as a school room) vies for importance with The Chancel.
