- Short Description
- "Saints Cyrus and John (Italian: Ciro e Giovanni, Arabic: اباكير ويوحنا‎) (d. ca. 304 AD, or 311) are venerated as martyrs. They are especially venerated by the Coptic Church and surnamed Wonderworking Unmercenaries (thaumatourgoi anargyroi) because they are supposed to have healed the sick free of charge.
Their feast day is celebrated by the Copts on the sixth day of Tobi, corresponding to 31 January, the day also observed by the Eastern Orthodox Church; on the same day they are commemorated in the Roman Martyrology. The Eastern Orthodox Church celebrate also the finding and translation of their relics on 28 June." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.01.2020) - Entity Encoding
