Life

Holy Martyr Eusebius was from Nicomedia and died burned at the stake together with Saint Charalampus for faith in Christ. It is not known when they suffered. They are commemorated on 31 May.

Being Christians, Eusebius and Charalampus were seized and, refusing to sacrifice to the idols, suffered death at the stake beside the Holy Martyrs Romanus, Teletius (also called Meletius) and Christina, who are commemorated a day earlier, on 30 May. The verses of the Synaxarion say that the two martyrs, kindled by zeal, did not shrink at all from the burning fire.

Commemorated the same day May 31
