Evangelicus of Tomis, a bishop of the 3rd century, fearlessly confronted Roman authorities. During a persecution, he was ordered to renounce his faith. He refused, boldly proclaiming Christ before the pagan governor, even after enduring torture. They threw him in a fire, but, according to tradition, he was unharmed. Then they beheaded him. His unwavering witness to Christ's truth, despite intense suffering, continues to inspire.

Holy Hieromartyr Evangelicus, pray to God for us!
