Saint Panteleimon FW

Saint Panteleimon was born around the middle of the 3rd century in Nicomedia in Bithynia, in Asia Minor. his knowledge and his good relationship with the imperial household made him a physician at the court of Emperor Diocletian. However, he himself finally embraced Christianity. This conversion happened after meeting Saint Hermolaos, at the time of a persecution against Christians. He was denounced by many as a Christian because he smelled his wealth to the poor. So he was arrested and asked to sacrifice to idols to be released. But he himself refused, saying that he will not sacrifice to false gods. It was decided to torture him with many abominable acts without any of them causing him death. He was finally beheaded on July 27, where he celebrates.
