St. Seraphia and Sabina

St. Seraphia and Sabina were early Christian martyrs from Rome, who suffered and died for their faith during the reign of Emperor Hadrian.

St. Seraphia and Sabina were two early Christian martyrs who lived during the 2nd century in Rome. Little is known about their lives, but their martyrdom and their courage in the face of Roman persecution have made them important figures in early Christian history.

According to tradition, St. Sabina was a noblewoman, possibly of Roman descent, while St. Seraphia is often described as her servant or companion. Both women were arrested during the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian, who was known for his brutal persecution of Christians. They were accused of being Christians and, as was common in such cases, were subjected to torture to force them to recant their faith. However, St. Seraphia and Sabina remained steadfast in their belief in Christ, and they were ultimately sentenced to death.

St. Sabina was executed first, and after her death, St. Seraphia was killed, with both women believed to have been beheaded for their refusal to renounce Christianity. Their martyrdom is thought to have taken place around the year 126, and their feast day is celebrated on August 29, the anniversary of their deaths.

The two women were buried together near the Via Salaria in Rome, and a church was later built on the site of their burial. The church became a site of pilgrimage for early Christians, and St. Seraphia and Sabina became known as symbols of courage, faith, and the triumph of the Christian spirit over persecution.

Though they were never formally canonized, St. Seraphia and Sabina are venerated as martyrs and saints, and their legacy lives on as an example of unshakable faith in the face of suffering. They are remembered for their love of Christ and their willingness to endure martyrdom rather than deny their beliefs.
