Saint Ourania was
one of the forty ascetics and students of Deacon Ammoun with origin from
Adrianople, Thrace. At that time, in 305 AD, the Roman emperor Licinius had
issued a decree to exterminate the Christians who refused to worship idols. The
Saint lived and martyred in this terrible time together with her sisters and
their teacher Ammun. These women did not succumb to the challenges of the
tyrant Licinius and as as a result they was tortured horrifically.
The
Orthodox Christian Church celebrates them on September 1 of each year.
