St. Charalambos Day: A Celebration of Faith and Resilience

Today, the Church honors Saint Charalambos, a priest who martyred for his faith in old age. Saint Charalambos is considered a miracle worker, particularly for protection against plagues and diseases, and is the patron saint of many regions in Greece. This day reminds us of the power of faith regardless of age and the values of trust in God and love for humanity. Those bearing the names Charalambos and its derivatives celebrate their name day today.
