• Icon of the Mother of God Panagia GALAKTOTROPHOUSA (Milk Feeder) 施乳者 of the Hilandar Monastery on Mt Athos
Σύναξις Ὑπεραγίας Θεοτόκου τῆς Γαλακτοτροφούσης
The “Milk-Giver” Icon of the Mother of God was originally located at the Lavra of St Sava the Sanctified near Jerusalem. Before his death, the holy founder of the Lavra foretold that a royal pilgrim having the same name as himself would visit the Lavra. St Sava told the brethren to give the wonderworking icon to that pilgrim as a blessing. In the thirteenth century, St Sava of Serbia visited the Lavra. As he approached the reliquary of St Sava the Sanctified, the saint’s staff fell at his feet. The brethren asked the visitor his name, and he told them he was Archbishop Sava of Serbia. Obeying the instructions of their founder, the monks gave St Sava his staff, the “Milk-Giver” Icon, and the Icon “Of the Three Hands” (celebrated on June 28 & July 12). The holy archbishop took the icon to Hilandar Monastery on Mount Athos and put it on the right side of the iconostasis in the church of St Sava at the kellion of Karyes, which is attached to Hilandar. The icon was later named Typikonissa, since the Rule (Typikon) of St Sava was preserved there.

Ireneaus, a deacon, and Mustiola, a noble lady, were martyred at Chiusi in Tuscany under Aurelian for having ministered to other martyrs and burying their bodies. In art, Saint Ireneaus is depicted as a deacon holding a palm and either with Mustiola alone or also with Saint Secundus. Patron of Chiusi.
Not to be confused with the better known Bishop Irenaeus of Lyons.
• ANATOLIUS 阿纳托利 bishop of Laodicea, and his successor St EUSEBIUS 艾弗塞维 (3rd c.)
St Eusebius was a Deacon in Alexandria, Egypt, serving under Saint Dionysius the Great. Exiled to Kefro, Libya in the persecutions of emperor Valerian c.255 for refusing to sacrifice to idols, Eusebius went into hiding to avoid the sentence, ministered to other covert Christians for several years, and cared for the sick during a plague outbreak in 260. Negotiated the surrender of women, children and elderly men to Roman troops during a siege of the Brucchium section of Alexandria. Represented his bishop at the Synod of Antioch which dealt with the heresey of Paul of Samosata and the false doctrines of Adoptionism and Monarchianism. Bishop of Laodicea, Syria (modern Latakia, Syria). A shory biography of him was included by Saint Eusebius of Caesarea in his Church History.

• MM JULIUS, AARON and Companions (4th c.)
Julius and Aaron were Roman-Britons who are said to have been put to death at Caerleon- upon-Usk in Monmouthshire, perhaps in the middle of the 3rd century. Nothing else is recorded about them. The date c. 304, during the persecution of Diocletian, commonly given to these martyrs is only a conjecture (though a very old one). It is now believed that Diocletian's decree against Christians was not enforced in Britain.

可敬的亚历山大（阿基枚特斯）
亚历山大出生于亚西亚，在君士坦丁堡接受教育。在完成学业之后，亚历山大到军队服役，职位为军官。在读了《圣经》之后，亚历山大明白了救世主的话：“你若愿意作完全人，可去变卖你所有的，分给穷人，就必有财宝在天上，你还要来跟从我”（玛特泰福音／太／玛19：21）。这些话语使亚历山大感受颇深，于是他马上变卖了他所拥有的财产，分给别人，自己隐退到了旷野中。亚历山大潜心修行，不断进行劳作，使自己纯正，在这之后他修建了无眠之人修道院，并制定了特殊的规矩：圣礼拜仪式在修道院中不间断地昼夜举行。众兄弟们被分成24个班，每个班都知道他们白日与昼夜的班次时间，从而他们去教堂中接续上一班接着进行咏唱。亚历山大到东部地区传讲福音身上不带任何东西，用基督信仰照亮那里的人们。亚历山大坚决同异端作斗争，出于上帝的恩典而行了许多奇迹，使侍奉主的工作得以壮大，最后于公元430年在君士坦丁堡去世，他的圣髑被安放在那里，拥有创造奇迹的大能和荣耀，上帝通过这来荣耀他的圣人。
• Sainted ANATOLIUS 阿纳托利 patriarch of Constantinople (458)
Ὁ Ἅγιος Ἀνατόλιος ὁ Μάρτυρας
圣阿纳托利乌斯，君士坦丁堡牧首
起初，阿纳托利乌斯在亚力山大一个教堂中任司祭职，在牧首弗拉维安去世后，阿纳托利乌斯于公元449年被选为君士坦丁堡牧首。在他管理教会期间，公元451年在卡尔西顿举行的普世大公会议上，君士坦丁堡和罗马两个牧首被确立拥有同等的地位。阿纳托利乌斯为维护东正教的纯正进行了艰苦的斗争，多次遭受异端的迫害，最后于公元458年教宗大莱翁统治期间被异端杀害。阿纳托利乌斯管理教会九年的时间，最后得以进入上帝的国度，与众圣人同享荣耀。
Patriarch of Constantinople from 449 to 458. Known for his simple, austere life, his charity to the poor, his zeal for the faith, and his opposition to heresy. He opposed the heretic Dioscurus at the Council of Chalcedon, and supported the doctrinal authority of Pope Saint Leo the Great, which put him in the midst of both theological and political turmoil. He fought against the Nestorian heresy at the Council of Ephesus. Miraculously healed from a serious illness by Saint Daniel the Stylite. May have been murdered by local heretics for his support of the Pope. Some of his writings, correspondence and hymns have survived the centuries.
Anatolios is believed to be the author of the 'Anatolian Stichera' found in the weekly Vespers and Matins services; but these may have been composed by another Anatolios, a monk and a disciple of St Theodore the Studite.

We all know St Valentine’s Day, the festival of love. But how many people know that in Crete the day of love comes many months later, on July 3, the feast of Saint Hyacinth, known here as Agios Yakinthos? The day of Agios Yakinthos is not particularly promoted. What lover has given or received a gift, from a flower to a solitaire, on 3 July? Indeed, few people knew that there was a patron saint of lovers called Yakinthos until the late 1990s. Agios Yakinthos is the Orthodox Patron Saint of love, youth and loving couples, his feast day, according to the Orthodox Church, is on July 3. Agios Yakinthos became widely known in Crete in 1998 when the composer and singer "Loudovikos ton Anoyion" (Loudovikos of Anogia), founded the not-for-profit company “Agios Yakinthos” along with the inhabitants of the mountain village of Anogia, and persuaded Anthimos, the Metropolitan of Rethymnon, to build a small church in honor of Agios Yakinthos on Mount Psiloritis. The proposal was accepted by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and the church was soon built. On the feast day of Agios Yakinthos on July 3rd, various cultural events are held in Anogia each year. These are the “Yakinthia”, which are gradually becoming better known. Agios Yakinthos was originally celebrated to form the opposite pole to the completely commercialized day of love. One of the founders of the Yakinthia, the Anogian songster Loudovikos ton Anogion (photo below), says:
“...Agios Yakinthos as an ideology can be expressed in three words: the Saint of emotions, remembrance and expectation. That’s why I tell them, when you go to Agios Yakinthos, light two candles, one to remembrance and one to expectation. In this place of prayer I am bound, on the one hand, to remember a great love I have lost, but I can also, on the other hand, pray to be visited by the emotion again. So Agios Yakinthos is not the Saint of Love, but the Saint of remembered and hoped-for emotions.”
• ISAIAH 伊撒依亚 the Solitary of Seeds and Palestine
可敬的隐士伊撒依亚
伊撒依亚于公元5－6世纪在埃及的斯切特修行。在《圣瓦尔萨努斐和约安》（249个回答以及其他）一书中曾提到过他，认为他是一个拥有特别神圣的人。伊撒依亚为修士和隐士们书写了许多指导性的书。遗留下来的伊撒依亚的作品很少，其中许多都被穆斯林人毁坏了。圣伊撒依亚说：“思想在从懒惰的睡眠中清醒过来之前同魔鬼住在一起。”“一切善工的花冠在于：人将他的一切希望寄托于上帝；他一旦在上帝那里得到倚靠，就会全心全意帮助所有人；为所有人充满同情心，在上帝面前哭泣，请求他的帮助和怜悯。”对一个人来说，一个罪被赦免的标记是什么呢？“罪被赦免的标记是：罪不再在你的心中产生任何活动，你已经深深地忘记了这个罪，在谈到类似的罪时，你不会对这罪从产生任何倾向，而是认为这罪对你来说完全是陌生的东西。这就是罪完全被赦免的标记。”一个人如果在他心中隐藏着对他旁人的恶意以及报复的想法，那么对他来说祷告和修行都是徒劳的。“竭尽全力注视自己，这样，在你口中说的与你心中想的就不会完全是两样。”“善工的花冠是爱；欲望的花冠是人的罪的辩护。”

• NECTARIA (Natalia Sheremet’jeva-Dolgoruky) of Russia; Schemanun of the Kiev-Florovsky Convent (1751) buried at the entrance to the Cathedral of the Kiev-Caves Lavra
St Nectaria’s father, Count Boris Petrovich Sheremetiev, was a close friend and collaborator of Tsar Peter I. At 16, she became betrothed to a handsome man, 22 year-old Prince Ivan Alexeevich Dolgoruky, a favorite of Tsar Peter II and the brother of the Tsar’s fiancée, Princess Catherine, who showered Ivan with all kinds of favors. Natalia became acquainted with Ivan only after their betrothal, but she came to love him, as she herself wrote, for his “sincere and pure-hearted love.” In 1739 tragedy struck the family. As a result of a false denunciation, Natalia’s husband, Ivan, was taken to Novgorod where he was quartered. He died courageously, as a Christian. When they cut off his right hand he said; “I thank Thee, O Lord.” As they cut off his left leg he continued, “for Thou hast granted me,” concluding, when his left hand was severed, “to know Thee, O Lord!” In 1753 she finally retired to the Kiev-Florovsky Convent. There, at the age of 45, she was tonsured and given the name Nectaria, and in 1767, having prepared herself through monastic labors, she took the great schema. It is said that before her tonsure she threw her engagement ring into the Dnieper River.
