Holy Neo-Martyrs Triandaphyllos and Spaso 8/21/2013
Triandaphyllos was born in Zagora and Anastasius (Spaso) was born in Radovis in the Diocese of Strumica. They were both Slavs. Both were young and simple men. But their love for Christ was more precious to them than this world or this life. They gave their lives and did not betray Christ. They suffered at the hands of the Turks for the Faith of Christ: Triandaphyllos in Constantinople in the year 1680 A.D. and Anastasius in Thessalonica in the year 1794 A.D.
