Virgin Martyrs Agape, Irene, and Chionia of Illyria

Today we remember the Virgin Martyrs Agape, Irene, and Chionia, three sisters who lived near Aquilea at the turn of the fourth century. Orphaned young, they devoted themselves to Christ, rejecting marriage and enduring great trials for their faith. Their steadfastness led to their arrest under Emperor Diocletian. Despite threats and temptations, they remained faithful, ultimately giving their lives rather than renouncing Christ. Their story is a powerful witness to purity, peace, and love in Christ.Support the show
