Holy Martyrs Chrysanthos and Euphemia


Verses

To Chrysanthos.
Chrysanthos blossomed as altogether pleasant fruit,
Who appeared much mightier than gold.

To Euphemia.
The discourse of praise to Euphemia,
Clearly made her worthy of immortality.

We do not know the identity of these Holy Martyrs, but in the Synaxarion of Constantinople we are told that a church was dedicated to them in Constantinople near the Church of Saint Akakios in Kontoskalion, known today as Kumkapi, that used to be in the area where the Armenian Patriarchate is located today.

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.
