Ermil, a deacon, and Stratonic, a guard, were martyred for their faith. Ermil openly confessed Christ during persecution. Stratonic, secretly a Christian, wept openly at Ermil's torture, revealing his faith. Both were brutally tortured and ultimately drowned in the Danube River for refusing to renounce Christianity.
Lord, may their sacrifice inspire us to defend our faith!
