Ermil, a deacon, and Stratonic, a prison guard, stood firm in their Christian faith during the reign of Licinius. Ermil was tortured for refusing to worship idols, enduring beatings and stonings. Stratonic, secretly a Christian, wept openly at Ermil's suffering, revealing his faith. Both were then drowned in the Danube River.
Lord, may their courage inspire us to unwavering faith.
