Saint Panteleimon (27 July)

Saint Panteleimon (Panteleon the former name) came from Nicomedia in Asia Minor and lived in the time of Maximian. He was trained in medicine by Euphrosynus and was indoctrinated in the Christian faith and baptized by the elder Ermolaos.
The occasion of his martyrdom was two miraculous healings of the Saint.  The king, after learning this, ordered his torture in order to deny his faith. The Saint, after being cruelly tortured in various ways, was finally beheaded.  Then there was a voice from heaven calling him not as Panteleon but as Panteleimon. It is said that blood did not flow from his wound but milk and the olive tree, to which he had been tied, suddenly bore fruit.
