Martyrs Donat and Venust, during the reign of Emperor Julian the Apostate, were arrested for their unwavering faith. Refusing to renounce Christ and offer sacrifices to idols, they were subjected to brutal tortures. They endured flaying and burning with unwavering courage. Their steadfast belief inspired many to embrace Christianity, leading to further conversions and defiance against the emperor's pagan revival.

O Martyrs Donat and Venust, pray for us and inspire us with your courage. May we remain steadfast in our faith, even in the face of adversity.
