According to the church calendar, today is the day of remembrance of the holy martyrs Chrysanthos and Darius.
Chrysanthus was born into a wealthy pagan family but secretly converted to Christianity.
When Chrysanthos' father found out about this, he became angry and tried to marry him to a pagan priestess, Darius.
Chrysanthus convinced Darius to become a Christian. By order of the Emperor of Rome, Chrysanthus and Darius were captured, tortured for a long time, and then stoned to death.
