The four martyrs, Claudius, Castor, Sempronian, and Nicostratus, were skilled sculptors in Pannonia, tasked with crafting pagan idols. Witnessing the unwavering faith and miraculous healings performed by Saint Simplicius, they were moved to embrace Christianity. Refusing to continue their idolatrous work, they destroyed the idols they had created. Facing persecution under Emperor Diocletian, they remained steadfast in their belief, enduring torture and ultimately giving their lives for Christ.
Let us pray for their intercession, that we too may find the courage to renounce false idols and live according to God's will. #Martyrs #Faith #Courage #OrthodoxChristian #Intercession
