The four holy martyrs, Claudius, Castor, Sempronian, and Nicostratus, were stonemasons by trade. They refused to carve a statue for the pagan god Asclepius, declaring their faith in Christ. For their defiance, they were subjected to brutal tortures, yet they remained steadfast, praising God. Their unwavering faith converted many, including another prisoner, Simplicius. After further torments, they were drowned at sea. May their courage inspire us to always stand firm in our beliefs. Let us pray for their intercession, that we too may have the strength to do God's work.
