Holy Martyr Abudimos of Tenedos

St. Abudimos of Tenedos (Feast Day - July 15)

Verses

Abudimos was brought to an end by a sword,
And this also brought the crown.

Saint Abudimos was from the island of Tenedos and suffered martyrdom during the reign of Emperor Diocletian in the year 299. Having been arrested as a Christian, he could not be persuaded to sacrifice to idols, therefore he was laid down and tied by his hands and feet to four stakes. Having been beaten by nine soldiers, and because he was unwilling to taste of that which was offered to idols, for this reason he was torn by iron claws, and finally was beheaded, thus ascending victoriously into the heavens.

The Russian Abbot Daniel says in the twelfth century that his relic was buried in Tenedos.

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.
