Feast day of St. Juliana of Nicomedia

The Church today venerates the memory of Juliana of Nicomedia, and her 630 companion Martyrs.

St. Juliana achieved the crown of martyrdom in the year 299 when beheaded, and after suffering numerous brutal torments. Some 500 men and 130 women witnessed her devoutness in faith and thus believed in Christ. They, too, were also beheaded.
