Synaxarion of Saints Timothy and Polyeuktos the Martyrs


Verses

To Timothy the Deacon
Timothy, the burnt one,
Where will we lay you, having obtained an all-honorable end?

Saint Timothy was imprisoned for confessing Christ, and after various cruel tortures he completed his martyrdom by being cast into flames. This took place in Mauritania of North Africa.


Verses

To Polyeuktos of Caesarea
What was your end Polyeuktos of Caesarea?
You entered the flames, finding a prayerful end.

Saint Polyeuktos contested in Caesarea, and after various tortures that he endured for his faith in Christ, he also completed his martyrdom by being cast into flames.

In this manner these two holy Martyrs received crowns from the Lord

Support the Mystagogy Resource Center

For more than fifteen years, the Mystagogy Resource Center has been a labor of love dedicated to making the riches of the Orthodox Christian tradition freely available to people throughout the world.

Thousands of articles, translations, lives of saints, theological reflections, historical resources, and daily materials have been published across this ministry’s websites, all offered free of charge for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Orthodox faith.

This is a one-man ministry that requires countless hours of research, translation, writing, editing, and maintenance each day.

If this work has spiritually benefited, educated, encouraged, or inspired you in any way, I humbly ask you to consider supporting this ministry financially.

Generous annual and monthly benefactors make possible the continuation and expansion of this work for the future, for without such support this ministry cannot exist.

Every contribution, whether large or small, truly makes a difference and is deeply appreciated. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and prayers.
