ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST Saints celebrated on the 17th of August SAINT STRATON AND COMPANIONS, MARTYRS Today, we also commemorate Saint Straton and Companions. The Roman Martyrology states: "At Nicomedia, the holy martyrs Straton, Philip and Eutychian, who were condemned to the beasts, but being uninjured by them, ended their martyrdom by fire." PRAYER: Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints Straton, Philip and Eutychian may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
