Christodoulos

Holy New Martyr Christodoulos was a fourteen-⁠year-⁠old from Patras, the only member of his family who remained Christian: his mother and his two sisters had renounced the faith.

With him suffered Anastasia, of the same age, the family's servant, who strengthened him spiritually. Both died for Christ at Patras on Palm Sunday 1821, as the historian Pouqueville, the French consul at Patras, left in writing as an eyewitness, noting that others also suffered with them.

The synaxarion appoints their commemoration on the Tuesday of Bright Week, as part of the synaxis of the saints of Achaea.
