St. Artemius the Great Martyr

Artemius was a general and governor of Egypt under Constantius. When Julian the Apostate began to torture Christians at Antioch, Artemius rebuked him openly for returning to idols. He was crushed between stones and beheaded. He became famous for healing illnesses, especially men’s ailments, at his shrine in Constantinople.
