Maneta of Caesarea

Holy Martyr Maneta of Caesarea, a native of the land of Scythia, was seized together with the Holy Martyrs Antoninus, Nicephorus and Germanus at Caesarea of Palestine. For mockery she was led naked through the city and then given over to various tortures, from which she came out unharmed with the help of God.

Maneta worked countless miracles, turned many from the impiety of idols, taught them the true faith and brought them to Christ. For this she was condemned to burning in fire. When the furnace was lit, she entered it herself and gave up her soul into the hands of the Lord.

She is commemorated on 26 November, in the new style.
