Life

Holy Martyr George is commemorated on 21 July (new style) in the Greek synaxarion, together with Holy Martyr Theodore.

No details have survived about their lives or the place where they suffered. A short verse of the synaxarion says only that both raised, through the labours of martyrdom, a great trophy of victory over pagan error.
