Martyr Nicander, a Roman soldier, and Marcian, his comrade, were converted by Hermolaus after witnessing his unyielding faith during torture. They began freeing imprisoned Christians, tending to their wounds, and providing them with food. Arrested for burying a martyr, they refused to renounce Christ, enduring horrific tortures. Finally, they were beheaded, steadfast in their belief. Oh Lord, through their prayers, strengthen our resolve and grant us the courage to profess your Holy Name always.
