Many many thanks to all those who contributed to match a generous $3000 donation from an anonymous donor. The goal was attained this past weekend. It is because of people like you that the Mystagogy Resource Center can continue to offer unique material to all for free on a daily basis that I hope people find beneficial. For those who still wish to contribute, please do so, with much gratitude in return. God bless you all!

Holy Martyrs Eutychios, Thessaloniki and the Two Hundred and Seventy Martyrs With Them

Sts. Eutychios, Thessaloniki and the 270 Martyrs with them (Feast Day - December 19)

Verses

To Eutychios and Thessaloniki.
Eutychios together with Thessaloniki,
Found successful victory by the sword.

To the Two Hundred Male and Seventy Female Martyrs.
Twenty times ten men were killed by a sword,
And seven times ten women were killed.

We do not have any information about these Holy Martyrs, except that they were martyred by means of a sword, probably by beheading.
