Hieromartyr Irineu, Bishop of Sirmium, steadfastly refused to offer pagan sacrifices despite Emperor Probus's decree. Facing torture and imprisonment, Irineu remained firm in his faith. When urged by his parents to save himself, he declared his unwavering commitment to Christ. Condemned for his beliefs, he was beheaded in 304 A.D. His last prayer was for those who persecuted him. Let us pray to Saint #Irineu to intercede for us, that we may remain strong in our #Faith amidst adversity and show #Love to those who oppose us, glorifying #JesusChrist through our actions. #Saints
