Pasicrates and Valentine, brothers and soldiers, stood firm in their #Christian #Faith when Emperor Maximian demanded they sacrifice to idols. Refusing to deny Christ, they were subjected to brutal tortures. Their unwavering resolve impressed many, including their own mother, who encouraged them to remain steadfast. Ultimately, they were beheaded for their devotion.

O Holy Martyrs, intercede for us that we may have the courage to defend our beliefs.
