Life

Holy Martyr Therapon is commemorated on 26 June together with the martyrs Macarius, Marcius and Marcia.

In the Synaxarion of Delehaye (p. 774) the commemoration of the martyr Therapon appears, accompanied by the other three, but it is not known who they are. They are not mentioned by Nicodemus the Hagiorite. The next day, 27 June, Marcius and Marcia are commemorated, put to death by the sword. Their existence is not confirmed from other sources. Their commemoration follows the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style).

Commemorated the same day June 26
