Jesus, Son of God, walked the earth, teaching love and forgiveness. Born in a manger, He performed miracles, healed the sick, and raised the dead. Betrayed by Judas, He was crucified, died, and rose again on the third day, conquering death and offering salvation to all.

Holy #Theotokos, intercede for us! O #VirginMary, lead us closer to your Son. #Pray for us, protect our families, and guide us on the path of #righteousness. #Faith

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.
