In the harsh winter of 304 AD, during Diocletian's persecutions, Saint Dassie, a Roman soldier, stood firm in his Christian faith. Ordered to participate in the pagan festival of Saturnalia, Dassie refused to desecrate his beliefs. Instead, he chose torture and death over apostasy. His unwavering commitment inspired many to remain steadfast.

Holy Martyr Dassie, pray to God for us! Help us keep our faith strong during hard times. #SaintDassie #Martyr #ChristianFaith #OrthodoxSaints #RomanSoldier
