Zeno

Holy Martyr Zeno and his sons Concordius and Theodore were Christian martyrs who, according to tradition, suffered together at Nicomedia in Bithynia (now in Turkey) around 362. They are venerated as saints, and their commemoration is on 2 September. The date of the martyrdom is not known with certainty; according to some sources they lived in the fourth century and were victims of one of the persecutions of Julian the Apostate, at Nicomedia. According to the old Roman Martyrology, on 2 September the holy martyrs Zeno, Concordius and Theodore, his sons, are commemorated at Nicomedia. The new Roman Martyrology now recalls only Zeno.
