Sorry for missing several days on my #nnn posting. To be honest, I just haven't been spending very much time online this week and simply forgot to post.
Regardless, today is still November 9th on the Julian calendar.
Today is about Onesiphorus and Porphyrius, the Martyrs.
The Holy Martyrs Onesiphorus and Porphyrius of Ephesus suffered during the persecution against Christians by the emperor Diocletian (284-305). They beat them and burned them. After this, they tied the saints to wild horses, which dragged them over the stones, after which the Martyrs Onesiphorus and Porphyrius died. Believers gathered the remains of the saints and reverently buried them.
