Monks gathered around him, and in the course of his life he established three monastic communities in the Holy Land.He died in peace at a great age. According to the Prologue, the practice of tonsuring monks originated with St Chariton.Troparion — Tone 8By a flood of tears you made the desert fertile, / and your longing for God brought forth fruits in abundance. / By the radiance of miracles you illumined the whole universe! / Our Father Chariton, pray to Christ God to save our souls!Kontakion — Tone 2You delighted in the monastic life, divinely-wise one / and conquered the bodily passions; / you increased in faith, blossoming as the tree of life in the midst of Paradise, / most blessed and holy Chariton! ...

In time, he joined the army, where he was the only Christian in his regiment. One of his fellow-soldiers saw Callistratus rise during the night to pray, and reported him to their commander.Callistratus was interrogated, then, when he refused to deny his faith or make sacrifice to the idols, was harshly beaten, then tied in a sack and thrown in the sea. But the sack burst open and Callistratus emerged from the sea unharmed.Seeing this, forty-nine of his fellow-soldiers confessed Christ, and were beaten and thrown into prison with Callistratus. In prison, Callistratus instructed the newly-enlightened Christians in the faith.Finally, all of them were beheaded, according to some sources in 288, according to others in 304.Troparion — Tone 3In contest you were strengthened by the Holy Spirit, Martyr Callistratus, / and were glorious in casting down the Enemy. / You offered a noble army of athletes / as sweet-smelling incense to Christ. / With them pray for us who praise you with hymns.Kontakion — Tone 4Podoben: “Today You have shown forth...” / Like stars you have shone upon the world / shedding the light of your contests and miracles upon all who cry to you: / “Rejoice, Martyr Callistratus and fellow company of martyrs. ...

  • "When they are not near a Roman Catholic Church, Roman Catholics are permitted to receive the Holy Communion in Orthodox Churches; and the same is also extended to Orthodox when they are not near an Orthodox Church." (From the book The Thyateira Confession p. 69, written by His Eminence Athenagoras Kokkinakis, Orthodox Archbishop of Thyateira and Great Britain, published by The Faith Press, in 1975, with the blessing and authorisation of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.)

  • "Επιτρέπεται εξ απόψεως Ρωμαιοκαθολικής να μεταλαμβάνουν εν καιρώ ανάγκης οι Ρωμαιοκαθολικοί εις Ορθοδόξους Εκκλησίας και οι Ορθόδοξοι εν καιρώ ανάγκης να μεταλαμβάνουν εις Ρωμαιοκαθολικάς Εκκλησίας." (Από το βιβλίο The Thyateira Confession σελ. 209, υπό του Σεβασμιοτάτου Αρχιεπισκόπου Θυατείρων και Μεγάλης Βρεττανίας Αθηναγόρου Κοκκινάκη - εκδόσεις The Faith Press - 1975, με την ευλογία και εγκρίση του Οικουμενικού Πατριαρχείου Κωνσταντινουπόλεως.)
