Saint Urpasian is a 2nd-century Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox saint and martyr. Urpasian suffered martyrdom in the city of Nicomedia.[1] The emperor Maximinus II (305-308) persecuted Christians serving in his army and at his court.[2] Urpasian was a member of the imperial household at Nicomedia. Some of the timid of soul began to waver and began to worship the pagan gods, but the strong of soul held out firmly until the very end.[3] He was arrested for his Christian beliefs, and was burned alive. His feast day is celebrated March 13. In the Orthodox Church, he is commemorated on March 9.[1] References1. ^1 Janos, S., "The Holy Martyr Urpasian", Holy Trinity Orthodox Church {{authority control}}{{RC-bio-stub}}{{Saint-stub}}2. ^"Holy Martyr Urpasian", (1997) St. Luke Orthodox Church 3. ^"Holy Martyr Urpasian", Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church, Tucson, Arizona 2 : Saints from Roman Anatolia|2nd-century Christian saints |
