Commemorated on February 17
The
Holy Martyr Menas Kallikelados (Well Speaking), an Athenian, died as a
martyr with Sts Hermogenes and Eugraphus in about the year 313 (December
10). During the reign of Emperor Basil the Macedonian (867-886), the
military commander Marcian discovered the saint's relics after St Menas
appeared to a certain pious man in a dream to reveal where they were.
