In 304 AD, during Diocletian's persecution, Montanus, a priest, and Maxima, a woman known for her piety, were arrested. They boldly confessed their faith in Christ before the Roman governor. Refusing to deny their belief, they endured brutal torture. Maxima, witnessing Montanus's steadfastness, encouraged him to remain strong. Ultimately, they were both drowned for their unwavering devotion.

Let us pray to Montanus and Maxima, intercede for us, that we may remain steadfast in our faith, even in the face of adversity. #Saints #ChristianFaith #Perseverance #OrthodoxChurch #Martyrdom
