Filomena wa Roma

Filomena wa Roma (10 Januari 291 - 10 Agosti 304) alikuwa bikira wa ukoo tawala wa Corfu (Ugiriki) ambaye alianza kuheshimika kama mtakatifu mfiadini baada ya masalia kupatikana mnamo Mei 1802 katika katakombu ya Priscilla, Roma, Italia. Paliandikwa Pax Tecum Filumena (yaani "Amani kwako, Filomena"). Kabla ya hapo hakujulikana, lakini baadaye heshima ya Wakatoliki na Waorthodoksi wengi kwake imestawi sana hadi leo sehemu nyingi za dunia ikisaidiwa na njozi na miujiza iliyotokea kwa kuomba sala zake.

Kati ya miaka 1837 na 1961 Kanisa Katoliki liliruhusu heshima hiyo katika liturujia pia.1920 typical edition of the Roman Missal, with feasts updated to the late 1920s , p. [214]: "11 August. St Philomena. Virgin and Martyr. Mass: Loquebar from the Common of Virgins, 1." Lakini wasiwasi wa wanahistoria umefanya jina lake liondolewe katika kalenda zote za watakatifu.
