Euche

Holy Martyr Euche is commemorated in the Church's calendar on 14 December (new style) as a confessor of Christ. The place and time of his suffering are not known from the sources consulted.

The name Euche comes from the Greek and means “prayer” or “vow”. The Church commemorates martyrs even when it does not know their story, because it sees in them those who gave all they had, their lives, for the faith. His memory is kept by his name and by the daily prayer.
