Holy Martyr Troadius suffered as a young man for Christ, in the third century. Saint Gregory of Neocaesarea saw him in a vision bravely bearing the torments for Christ until he was killed, and saw his soul which, separating from the body, hastened joyfully to heaven. The Serbian Church commemorates him on 2 March by the old calendar (15 March by the new).
