saint sergius

See Sergii Radonezhsky (Sergius of Radonezh) for the spiritual leader and monastic reformer of medieval Russia.

- Saint Sergius. The Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches celebrate the martyrs Sergius and Bacchus, Roman officers who suffered under Maximian, on October 7. Both were martyred in Syria, Sergius at Rosafa (Rasifta, Rosafat Hisham) near Rakka. Sergius was a very famous saint in Syria and Christan Arabia; and Rosafa, which became a bishop's see took the name of Sergiopolis, and preserved his relics in a fortified basilica. The church was adorned and the place further strengthened by Justinian. -- From the 9th edition (1886) of an unnamed encyclopedia. = External Links =
