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 Caesarios, Dakios, Savvas, Sabinian, Agrippa, Adrian and Thomas

Sts. Caesarios, Dakios and the Five Martyrs With Them (Feast Day - November 1)

Verses

With six fellow athletes who were friends of truth,
Caesarios was decapitated by the friends of falsehood.

These Saints were apprehended in the city of Damascus, and after being punished with various tortures in order to deny Christ, they remained steadfast and unable to be persuaded, therefore they were beheaded. In this way the blessed ones received crowns of martyrdom.
