Our father among the saints Metrophanes of Constantinople was the Bishop of Byzantium from 306 to 314. He was the 26th Bishop of Constantinople during the Ante-Nicene Byzantium era, and his feast day is June 4. His father (Dometius) and brother (Probus) also served as bishops of Byzantium. It has been said that Constantine the Great, moved by Metrophanes' piety, was inspired to choose Constantinople as the new capital of the Eastern Empire. Due to poor health, Metrophanes was unable to participate in the First Ecumenical Council, and reposed in 326 at the age of 117.
