Usuku Lweengelosi ogama linguMarina kwi-Orthodox
Iintsuku-iintsuku zegama lomkhosi zigujwa ngokuhlonipha uMarina Beria (waseMacedonia) kunye nodadewabo uKira. Amantombazana amabini sele ekhulile, wagqiba ekubeni ashiye indlu yabazali abahloniphekileyo aze ahlalise. Amantombazana angcwele ahlala ngaphandle komzi kwindawo encinciweyo kwaye athabatha ukutya kuphela emva kweentsuku ezingama-40. Ubumfihlo babo baphulaphula kuphela uhambo oluya kwi-Holy Sepulcher, eYerusalem kunye nebhokisi likaFelila e-Isauria. Kuyaphawuleka ukuba ngexesha lohambo olubini uMarina noKoreshi abazange bathabathe ukutya baze bahlupheke.
Usuku lokuzalwa, oluya ngoJulayi 30 , lugubha ngokuhlonipha uLwandle lwase-Antiyokiya, indawo yokuzalwa yaseAntiyoki yasePisidiya (ngoku yintsimi yaseTurkey). Uyise wakhe wayengumbingeleli, kodwa nangona kunjalo, wayethandwa ngumKristu. Xa wayeneminyaka eli-12 ubudala, uMary Maryna wabhaptizwa, ngenxa yoko uyise wakhe wamlahlela.
Xa wayeneminyaka eli-15, intombazana yayinikelwa ngesandla kunye nentliziyo inikezela kumlawuli waseAntiyokwe. Kodwa ulwalamano lwabo kwakufuneka lutshintshe ukholo, apho uMarina akazange avume. Emva koko waxhatshazwa yinto eyoyikisayo: babethelela izikhonkwane kwiimpala, banjiswe ngeentonga, batshiswa ngomlilo. Ngosuku lwesithathu lokuhlanjululwa, iinkukhu zithunyelwa ezandleni zakhe, kwaye ukukhanya okungaqhelekanga kwakhanya ngaphezulu. Ukubona oku kwamangaliswa abantu baqalisa ukudumisa uThixo, okwamcaphukisa umbusi. Walawula ukubulawa koNgcwele kunye nabo bonke abantu abakholelwa kuKristu. Ngaloo mini, abantu abayi-15 bafa. Namhlanje, iSonto leNtshona lihlonela uMarina, libiza uMargarita waseAntiyokwe. Iicawa ezininzi zibizwa ngegama lakhe.
