Life

Saint Thomas, a deacon, is remembered on 28 November together with the deacon Basil. The Greek Menaion counts them among those who suffered martyrdom at Tiberiopolis, in the same group as the bishops Timothy and Theodore and the priests Peter, John, Sergius, Theodore and Nicephorus. Our sources give neither their years nor their sufferings, and the date of commemoration is that of the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style).
