Life

The Bishops of Tremithus, Saints Arkadios and Nestor, were bishops of that city in Cyprus in the first centuries of the Church on the island. They shepherded in different times and led many pagans away from the worship of idols, baptizing them as Christians. After they had faithfully shepherded the flock of Christ, they fell asleep in peace. They are remembered together on 7 March, by the calendar of the Church of Cyprus.
