Commemorated on February 13
Saint
Photina remained on the island, where she spent six years in solitude,
and then she gave up her soul to God. Everything about her death was
reported by that same sailor who brought her food, just as he had done
previously for St Martinian. The sailor brought the body of St Photina
to Palestinian Caesarea, where it was solemnly buried by the bishop and
clergy.
Ss. Zoe and Photina are celebrated on the same day with St Martinian.
