Four martyrs commemorated together in the Orthodox calendar.
Life
Holy Martyrs Eusebius, Neon, Leontius and Longinus were fellow soldiers of the holy Great Martyr George. Seeing the valiant endurance and the miracles during the torture of Saint George, these soldiers became Christians, for which they were ordered beheaded. The Serbian Church commemorates them on 24 April by the old calendar (7 May by the new).
