Today we celebrate the memory of St. Martin I, pope, martyr and defender of the faith.
During the seventh century, St. Martin I suffered exile and humiliation for defending orthodoxy amidst disagreements over the relationship between Christ's human and divine natures.
He died in exile. Later, he was vindicated by the Third Ecumenical Council of Constantinople.
St. Martin I, thank you for your courage. Please, pray for us!
