Life

Holy Martyr Feion suffered together with two boys, and the Holy Martyr Carion was his companion in confession. For the confession of Christ, Feion and the two boys died by the sword after tortures, and Carion had his tongue cut out.

The calendar page we rely on says nothing about the place or time of their martyrdom, so we add nothing that is not known for certain. They are commemorated on 14 February, according to the Greek tradition. Their names are not included in the present Menologion of the Russian Church.
