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 Three Thousand Six Hundred and Twenty-Eight (3,628) Martyrs of Nicomedia

Holy 3,628 Martyrs of Nicomedia (Feast Day - September 4)

Verses

Six hundred and three times a thousand athletes together,
You united with the Angels above O Christ.

These Saints hid in the mountains and caves of Nicomedia in the year 290, who were first punished by Emperor Maximian with various tortures, and finally put to death. In this way they received the crowns of the contest.
