Born in Scotland, 5th century. Saint Kennera is said to have been educated with Saint Ursula (f.d. October 21) and Saint Regulus of Patras (f.d. March 30). Later she became a recluse at Kirk-Kinner in Galloway, Scotland (Benedictines, Encyclopaedia).

Troparion of St Kennera
tone 8
Bright beacon of purity and Light of Galloway, O holy Kennera,
as thou didst preserve thyself in virginity for love of Christ,
pray to Him, that despite our corrupt condition He will grant us great mercy.
