Ὁ Ἅγιος Χαράλαμπος ὁ Ἱερομάρτυρας
Οἱ Ἅγιοι Βάπτος καὶ Πορφύριος οἱ Μάρτυρες καὶ οἱ τρεῖς πιστεύσαντες γυναῖκες 殉道司教哈拉蓝博
这位伟大的圣人是玛格尼西亚的主教，为基督的缘故忍受了磨难，殉道时113岁高龄。当皇帝塞蒂米乌斯•塞维鲁斯开始残酷地迫害基督徒时，长老哈拉蓝博并没有隐藏，而是公开地宣讲基督信仰。所有在他身上施加的酷刑，都如同没有在他身上发生一样。当刽子手们生剥他的皮肉时，这位宽宏大量的长老对皇帝的士兵说：“谢谢你们，我的兄弟们，因为你们使我脱去了旧的身躯，为我的灵魂带来了一个新的、永恒的生命。”哈拉蓝博施行了很多奇迹，并皈依了很多人信奉基督。就连皇帝的女儿加利娜也放弃了她父皇的偶像崇拜成了基督徒。哈拉蓝博被判处死刑，在刑场上，哈拉蓝博将双手举向天空为所有的人向上帝祷告，乞求上帝赐给他们健康的体魄、拯救他们的灵魂，并使他们在地上的果实增多。“哦，上帝，你知道人是血肉之躯，请原谅他们的罪，并为他们注入你的恩典！”在祷告结束后，这位伟大的圣人在刽子手举起刀之前就魂归天国了。哈拉蓝博于公元202年殉道。皇帝的女儿加利娜将他的遗体移走，并荣耀地进行了埋葬。
Saint Charalampos, a priest, lived in Magnesia under Emperor Septimus Severus (193-211) and President Lucian. Because he taught the true life, he was seized and stripped of his priestly robe. His skin was flayed. Irritated by the Saint's endurance, the President insisted on scraping his body with his own hands. On the spot, he had his hands cut off and thrown on the martyr's body. Then he implored the Saint to heal him, which he did. Upon seeing this, two men, Dauctus and Porphyrios, the executioners, repudiated the idols and believed in Christ, as well as did three women who were in the crowd. Although miraculously cured the President persisted in his impiety and had all of them seized. After many tortures, he cruelly ordered them to be beheaded.

Ὁ Ὅσιος Πρόχορος ἐκ Ρωσίας
可敬的食野菜者——普若霍尔
普若霍尔是基辅洞窟修道院的一位显灵迹者。他被称为食野菜者，是因为他在修道院生活期间从来没有吃过面包，而只食用野菜。他用自己的方式将这种野菜混合，而后做成一种面包。有时，他将面包祝福，分给别人吃。这种面包吃起来香甜，就如同用蜂蜜做成的一样；如果有人偷了面包，面包的味道就会如同蒿子做成的一样变得苦涩难以入口。有一次，俄罗斯国内食盐供应匮乏，普若霍尔就将香灰当作盐分给人们。经过他祝福的香灰就如同盐一样；而一些人擅自拿走的香灰仍然是普通的香灰。王子思维亚托波尔科下令，将普若霍尔庵室中的香灰全部运到他的皇宫中，但是并没有经得普若霍尔的允许，也没有得到他的祝福。当他们带来了香灰进行了品尝之后才确信，这是香灰而不是盐。普若霍尔告诉来到他那里寻求盐的人们回到皇宫，当王子将香灰从皇宫仍出的时候，将这些香灰带回家里，就如同盐一样。这些人这样作了，香灰成了盐。王子确信了此事，并对普若霍尔充满了敬佩和爱戴，当这位圣人于公元1107年去世时，王子亲手将其埋葬在俄罗斯伟大的圣人安托尼和德奥多西的陵墓旁。
Prochorus was a miracle-worker of the Monastery of the Caves in Kiev. He is called the Orach-Eater because during the time that he lived in the Monastery of the Caves he did not taste of bread, rather he fed on orach, mixing it in his own way and from it prepared a type of bread. Whenever he would give someone his orach bread with a blessing, the bread tasted sweet as though prepared from honey; if someone stole the bread, it was as bitter as wormwood. One time when there was a shortage of salt in Russia, Prochorus distributed ashes to the people as though it were salt. The ashes, which he distributed with his blessing, were as salt. However, the ashes which someone would take on their own, was as ordinary ashes. Prince Svyatopolk ordered all the ashes from Prochorus' cell be taken to his palace without the permission and the blessing of the monk, Prochorus. When the ashes were removed, those who tasted of it were convinced that it was ashes and not salt. Then Prochorus told the people who came to him for salt to go to the emperor's palace and when the prince tosses out the ashes from his residence, to take them and carry them home as though they were salt. The people did so and again, the ashes were as salt. Believing in this, the prince himself was filled with respect and love toward the holy Prochorus, so that when he died in the year 1107 A.D., the prince, with his own hands, placed Prochorus in the tomb along side the great Russian Saints Anthony and Theodosius.

• Venerabless SCHOLASTICA 斯霍拉斯提卡 of Nursia, Fndr. and Abs. of Plombariola (480- 543) the twin sister of St Benedict of Nursia, Italy
Sister of St Benedict and his constant fellow-laborer in the vineyard of Christ. The siblings were quite close. She was as devoted to Christ as she was to her brother. She became a nun and lived near Montecassino. They lived in neighboring monasteries; though they loved one another dearly, they met only once a year, spending the day in prayer and spiritual conversation, then parting after sharing a simple meal. At their meeting in 543, she prevailed on her brother (and the monk who accompanied him) to break his own monastic rule and stay with her in vigil through the night. Three days later, as Benedict looked out his cell window, he saw his sister's soul in the form of a dove ascending to heaven.
Our relatives must be loved in and for God; otherwise the purest affection becomes inordinate and is ill directed, because taken from Him.
• SILVANUS Bishop of Terracina in Italy
Bishop Silvanus of Terracina is described in the Roman Martyrology as a Confessor, which would mean that he had suffered for the faith by imprisonment, torture or, perhaps, even death.
• VM SOTERIS (Soteria) at Rome (304)
As a young Christian woman of Rome, Soteris, intent upon protecting her chastity with modesty, renounced the wearing of any finery that would have drawn attention to her exceptional beauty. During one of the many waves of persecution under the pagan Roman emperors, Soteris was arrested for her faith. After refusing to deny Christ before the judge interrogating her, she was repeatedly struck in the face. The Church Father Saint Ambrose, who was proud to be a descendant of Soteris' family, relates that, as Soteris was undergoing this torment, "she did not bend her head, did not turn her face away, did not emit a sigh or tear". Rather, Soteris considered herself honored to suffer what Christ had suffered when in his Passion he was struck in the face. Other tortures were also inflicted, but nothing was able to undermine Soteris' constancy. In the end, the judge ordered her to be beheaded.

• Holy Rightbelieving Wonderworker VLADIMIR Prince of Novgorod (1052) son of Prince Yaroslav (11th c.)
• Venerable Righteous ZENO the Letter Carrier, hermit at Antioch, the Postman of Emperor Valens (4th c.)
Ὁ Ὅσιος Ζήνων ὁ Ταχυδρόμος
Μνήμη Θαύματος ἀπαλλαγῆς νήσου Ζακύνθου ἐκ τῆς πανώλης
Following the fall of various Venetian-occupied cities and forts in mainland Greece and the fall of Crete in 1669, Zakynthos became a key port for Venetian trade from and towards the Levant and Constantinople - where the Ottoman Turkish authorities lagged western Europe in disease prevention and control. Additionally, Zakynthos was only a short distance from the Peloponnese where again the Ottoman Turkish authorities were lax in enacting policies to prevent disease and building appropriate infrastructure to improve sanitary conditions and the health of the inhabitants of the area. Consequently, many merchants and sailors entered and exited the port of Zakynthos from Ottoman Turkish controlled ports - these merchants and sailors were sometimes unwilling to undergo the increasingly strict measures Zakynthos enacted to avoid plague, pestilence, cholera and other disease outbreaks. Therefore, the people of Zakynthos were at significant risk of being impacted by the plague, pestilence and other disease epidemics.
Zakynthos did suffer from serious outbreaks of the plague in 1617, 1646, 1692 and 1728 and also smallpox in 1713, 1748 and 1778. One of the most famous victims of the 1728 plague was the painter and sometime doctor, Hieronymous Plakotos. He and his son died in his doctor's clinic and the local authorities decided to burn it, including his paintings, fearing a further outbreak. From the beginning of the 18th century the sanitary measures taken by the Venetian authorities and enacted by local Cittadini such as strict control of population movements and quarantine, improved lazarettos, better trained public health offices and coastal garrisons, reduced the incidences of outbreaks in the 18th century.
In the year 1728 George Xenos of Zakynthos had a dream in which he saw Saint Haralambos thwarting off the deadly plague. Immediately after this vision the spread of the horrible disease began to subsist, and the population of Zakynthos appealed to the Venetian authorities to ratify the building of a new stone church dedicated to Saint Haralambos in Potami. Permission was granted and a beautiful church was erected. Annually a procession took place on February 10th to commemorate the deliverance of Zakynthos from the plague of 1728 by Saint Haralambos. In 1732 the iconographer Nicholas Kallergis, who painted most of the images of the church, painted a processional icon depicting the deliverance of Zakynthos from the plague by Saint Haralambos, and this image was coated in silver in 1743.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.
愿上帝怜恤我罪人
O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God,
for the sake of the prayers
of Thy most pure Mother,
our holy and God-bearing fathers and all the saints, have mercy on us.
Amen.
