Life

Saint Phronimus suffered at Thessalonica, in the time of the emperor Maximian, and is commemorated on 13 March (new style) in the Greek synaxarion, together with Fronto.

No data about the time of their martyrdom is preserved, except that it took place in the days of Maximian. Their commemoration is held in some places on 13 March, in others on 14 March. An online synaxarion notes that their existence and the date of their feast are not confirmed by other sources.
