Life

Holy Martyr Zosimus of Thessalonica is commemorated in the calendar of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church on 17 April, as a martyr. The list of Bulgarian saints records him only by name, place and date. The encyclopedia page to which the list points speaks of a Zosimus who was Metropolitan of Thessalonica in 1607 and says nothing of martyrdom, so the identification remains uncertain; no details of the martyr's life or death are preserved.
