What happened on this day?
Today the Orthodox Church commemorates the martyrs Eustratius, Auxentius, Eugene, Mardarius and Orestes. They suffered at the hands of two emperors, Maximilian and Diocletian, who destroyed the Christians. This happened when people in Armenia and Cappadocia believed in Jesus Christ. At the same time, the rulers were informed that people could move away from the Roman Empire through faith. The saints tried to expose the cruelty of their executioners, preached the Word of God and helped the poor.
