I was recently commissioned to translate some profound and inspiring works by our Righteous Father Alexei Mechev, which I put together in a booklet. Unfortunately, after printing 500 copies, circumstances changed and the one who commissioned the work has been hospitalized and called off the purchase. Since I am at an unforeseen personal loss with this, I wanted to make these never before translated texts available to my followers for only $11.95 a copy, which includes shipping and handling. I would like to sell all of these as quick as possible, and it would be great reading material for the lenten season. As an added incentive, for the first 50 people who order, I will also offer a never before published text by Fr. John Romanides titled "The Canon and the Inspiration of the Holy Scripture" free of charge.

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
