Product Description

Saint Leonidas and The Holy 7 Martyrs  Charissa, Nike, Galina, Kalisa (Kalida), Nunekhia, Basilissa, and Theodora suffered and martyred for their faith at Corinth in the year 258 AD. When they were thrown into sea, they did not drown. Instead, they walked on the water as if on dry land, singing hymns to God. The torturers then in rage, dragged them onto a ship, tied stones around their necks and drowned them, and this time they rested in the Lord.

Feast Day: 16th April
