Today we also celebrate the Holy Virgin Martyr Hermione the Unmercenary. Saint Hermione was the daughter of the Holy Apostle Philip the Deacon. Consecrating her virginity from a young age, she became a follower of a disciple of the Apostle Paul. She studied in the medical arts and perfected her calling as an unmercenary, healing all by her prayers to Christ. Being denounced to the emperor, she was severely tortured after which she gave up her soul to the Lord. May she intercede for us all + #saint #hermione #virginmartyr #martyr #healer #apostle #philip #apostlephilip #deacon #medicine #doctor #unmercenary #orthodox #saintoftheday (at Ephesus, Turkey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiDs9YtPshs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today we celebrate the Holy and Glorious Apostle Philip the Evangelist, one of the Seven Deacons. This Saint Philip is not to be confused with Apostle Philip of the 12 Apostles. Philip the Evangelist was chosen as one of seven Deacons (among whom the first was the Protomartyr Stephen). He attended to the needs of the widows, the orphans, and the needy. Having lived in Samaria for some time, he converted many of their people. He also travelled all the way to Ethiopia where he converted and baptised the Queen's eunuch. Having preached all over the Near Eastern lands, the Holy Apostle Philip reposed in peace. It is also noteworthy to mention that one of his daughters was the Unmercenary Saint Hermione who is mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles. May he intercede for us always + #saint #apostle #holy #glorious #philip #apostlephilip #deacon #saintphilip #saintstephen #saintsteven #ethiopia #samaria #samaritan #preach #gospel #convert #christian #christianity #twelveapostles #orthodox #sophia
