Life
Holy Martyr Damian is commemorated on 31 October (new style) in the Greek synaxarion, in a company of nine martyrs: Stephen, Barnabas, Trophimus, Dorymedon, Cosmas, Damian, Sabbas, Bassa and Abramius, together with their companions.
The synaxarion preserves no details of their lives, only a verse saying that the nine athletes, with the multitude of those who suffered beside them, received equal crowns in heaven.
Commemorated the same day October 31
