Commemorated on January 8
Saint Helladius suffered with St Theophilus the deacon. After
confessing Christ before the governor of Libya, they were tortured and
slain.
TROPARION - TONE 4
Your holy martyrs Helladius and Theophilus, O Lord, / Through their suffering have
received an incorruptible crown from You, our God. / For having Your
strength, they laid low their adversaries, / And shattered the powerless
boldness of demons. / Through their intercessions, save our souls!
