The [[Tridentine calendar]] reserved 26 April as the feast day of Saint Cletus, who the church honoured jointly with [[Pope Marcellinus]], and 13 July for solely Saint Anacletus. In 1960, [[Pope John XXIII]], while keeping the 26 April feast, which mentions the saint under the name given to him in the Canon of the Mass, removed 13 July as a feast day for Saint Anacletus. The 14 February 1961 Instruction of the Congregation for Rites on the application to local calendars of [[Pope John XXIII]]'s [[motu proprio]] ''Rubricarum instructum'' of 25 July 1960, decreed that "the feast of 'Saint Anacletus', on whatever ground and in whatever grade it is celebrated, is transferred to 26 April, under its right name, 'Saint Cletus'". Priests who celebrate Mass according to the [[General Roman Calendar of 1954]] keep the July 13th feastday; but the feast has been removed from the [[General Roman Calendar]] since 1960, and as such is not kept even in the 1962 Missal.<ref name=CR>Calendarium Romanum (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 1969), p. 121</ref> Although the day of his death is unknown,<ref name=CR/> Saint Cletus continues to be listed in the [[Roman Martyrology]] among the saints of 26 April.<ref>Martyrologium Romanum (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 2001 {{ISBN|88-209-7210-7}})</ref>
