In Roman times, Epictetus, a priest, and Astion, his disciple, spread the Gospel near the Danube. Arrested for their faith, they refused to renounce Christ, enduring horrific tortures. Miraculously healed each time, their resilience angered the authorities. Finally, they were beheaded for their unwavering devotion. Oh Lord, through their sacrifice, strengthen our faith and guide us to live boldly for You.
