Cyrus

Cyrus was a boy of 4, son of Sergius Shuang. He was killed on 10 June 1900 (old style; 23 June in the new), during the Boxer Rising, in the family's own house near the Mission.

Many Orthodox Christians were pressed at that time to renounce their faith in order to save their lives. His name appears in the list of the 222 Orthodox Christians killed in the Boxer Rising, published in 1904 by the Brotherhood of the Orthodox Church in China. The sources give no further details about him.

In 1902 the Holy Synod of the Russian Church allowed the local veneration of the Chinese martyrs, and in 2016 its Council of Bishops blessed their veneration throughout the Russian Church. They are commemorated together on 11 June (old style).
