Life
Saint Kyria is commemorated on 5 April together with Doula (the Servant), as two women martyrs who were put to death by the sword.
The verse of the synaxarion shows that the servant followed her mistress, both going to God through the sword. Nothing else survives of their lives, or of the place or time of their martyrdom. Their commemoration follows the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style).
