Pasicrates and Valentine, brothers and soldiers, openly confessed their Christian faith when commanded to offer pagan sacrifices. Imprisoned and tortured, they remained steadfast, converting many fellow prisoners. Refusing to renounce Christ, they were subjected to wild beasts, but the animals did not harm them. Finally, they were beheaded for their unwavering belief. Lord, through the prayers of #Martyrs Pasicrates and Valentine, strengthen our resolve to always confess Your Holy Name. May their courage inspire us to live boldly for You. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Faith #Prayer #RomanianOrthodox

Ermil, a deacon, and Stratonic, a guard, were martyred for their faith. Ermil was tortured for refusing to worship idols. Stratonic, secretly a Christian, wept openly at Ermil's suffering, revealing his own faith. Both were then subjected to further torment before being drowned in the river. Their unwavering faith until death serves as a testament to the strength found in Christ. Lord, may their sacrifice inspire us to remain steadfast in our beliefs. #Martyrs #OrthodoxChristian #Faith #Sacrifice #Prayer
