On July 18, we remember #Saint Emilian of Durostorum. A tale of unwavering faith: When authorities demanded public sacrifice to idols, Emilian boldly overturned the idols in the temple. Arrested and questioned, he confessed his act, declaring allegiance only to Christ. Despite threats, he refused to renounce his faith. Condemned, he was burned alive.

O Holy Emilian, pray to God for us!
