Venerable Martirius the Deacon

(25 October/7 November)


Because of his great purity and struggles, St Martirius had a gift of wonderworking. He had great boldness before God; he always received what he asked for, while serving on the ambo: either healing from illness or in fulfilling some good intention with God’s help. St Martirius was terrifying to demons and he could banish them from people by his prayers. After lengthy struggles and monastic labours, he passed to God Who he had served, and his relics rest in the caves.
