Life
The Eight Saints of Phthiotis are a group of saints of the region of Phthiotis, in central Greece, commemorated together in the calendar of the Church of Greece.
The synaxarion appoints their commemoration for the Sunday before the Annunciation, that is, the Sunday falling between 18 and 24 March, so it is a movable day. The liturgical text says only that on this Sunday the synaxis of the eight saints of Phthiotis is celebrated. No further details of their lives survive, nor their names.
Commemorated the same day March 22
