Life

Methodius of Olympus (Koine Greek: Μεθόδιος) (died c. 311) was an early Christian bishop, ecclesiastical author, and martyr. Today, he is honored as a saint and Church Father; the Catholic Church commemorates his feast on June 20.

May Methodius of Olympus intercede for us, and may we imitate today the holiness this Life has shown.
