Hieromartyr Silvanus of Gaza
The Holy Hieromartyr Silvanus of Gaza, was a native of the
city of Gaza. He was first a soldier, then a priest. He was falsely
accused of a crime and sentenced to labor in the copper mines. In spite
of many tribulations, the saint did not renounce Christ. In his old age,
he was beheaded together with forty other Christians.
