Life
Holy Martyr Paul of Caesarea in Palestine (the second of that name) is commemorated on 29 July with the holy martyrs Alevtina and Chionia. The three were from Egypt and, in the persecution of the emperor Maximin (305-313), were brought to Caesarea in Palestine, where, without the least fear of the governor, they confessed themselves followers of Christ. In the year 308 the sisters Alevtina and Chionia were burned after merciless torments, and Paul was beheaded.
Saint Paul is commemorated on 29 July, in the new style.
