Holy Martyr Evdokia was a Samaritan woman, originally from the city of Iliopol, Phenicia, Lebanon. Pagan wickedness pushed her away from the good path, and she led a sinful life for a long time. Her soul was dead, her heart hardened.

One day at midnight, Evdokia woke up and heard behind the wall, in the other half of the house where the Christian lived, prayer singing and reading Holy Scripture, which spoke of both eternal bliss prepared for the righteous and retribution awaiting sinners. The grace of God touched the heart of Evdokia, and she realized that it was the sins she had committed that lay like a burden on her soul.

In the morning, Evdokia hurried to call a man to her, prayer rule heard at night. It was Elder Herman, returning from a pilgrimage to holy places to his monastery. Evdokia listened to the instructions of the elder for a long time, and her soul seemed to come to life and was filled with joy and love for Christ. She asked Elder Herman to come to her in a few days, and she shut herself up in the house and in repentance devoted herself to fasting and prayer.

Elder Herman invited the presbyter, and after the test and announcement, Evdokia accepted holy baptism from Bishop Theodotos of Iliopol. Having distributed all her possessions to the poor, she retired to a monastery and took upon herself the most severe feats of repentance. The Lord forgave the repentant sinner and endowed her with grace-filled spiritual gifts.

Once, when she was already the abbess of the monastery, a young pagan Philostratus appeared in the monastery. Fueled by an impure passion, he entered the monastery under the guise of a monk and began to persuade the Monk Evdokia to return to Iliopol to begin her former life again. “God of vengeance forbid you,” Evdokia answered with anger, and the false monk fell down dead. Fearing that what had happened would be considered a murder, the sisters intensified their prayer and asked the Lord to reveal His will to them.

The Lord Himself appeared in a dream to St. Evdokia and said: “Arise, Evdokia, kneel down, pray, and your tempter will rise.” And through the prayer of Evdokia, Philostratus came to life. The pagan brought back to life begged the reverend to forgive him. Having received holy Baptism, he withdrew to Iliopol. Since then, he never forgot the mercy of God shown to him, and embarked on the path of repentance.

It wasn't long before another test followed. The inhabitants of Iliopol reported to the ruler Aurelian that, having adopted Christianity, Evdokia allegedly hid her wealth in the monastery. Aurelian sent a detachment of soldiers to seize these imaginary treasures. However, for three days the soldiers tried in vain to approach the walls of the monastery: the invisible power of God guarded it. Aurelian again sent soldiers to the monastery, this time led by his son. But on the very first day of the journey, the son of Aurelian badly injured his leg and soon died. Then Philostratus advised Aurelian to write to Saint Eudoxia, begging her to revive the young man. And the Lord, in His infinite mercy, through the prayers of Saint Eudoxia, brought the young man back to life. Having witnessed a great miracle, Aurelian and his neighbors believed in Christ and were baptized.

When the persecution of Christians intensified, the Monk Eudokia was seized and brought to torment before the ruler Diogenes. The warlord Diodorus, who tortured her, received news of the sudden death of his wife Firmina. In desperation, he rushed to Saint Eudoxia with a request to pray for the deceased. The venerable martyr, filled with great faith, turned to God with a prayer and asked Him to return Firmina to life. Convinced with their own eyes of the power and goodness of the Lord, Diodorus and Diogenes believed in Christ and after a while were baptized with their families. The Monk Evdokia lived for some time in the house of Diodorus and enlightened the newly converted Christians.

Once the only son of a certain widow, working in the garden, was stung by a snake and died. The mother mourned her dead son bitterly. Upon learning of her grief, Saint Eudoxia said to Diodorus: “The time has come for you, too, to show your faith in Almighty God, Who hears the prayers of penitent sinners and, in His mercy, fulfills their petitions.”

Diodorus was embarrassed, not considering himself worthy of such boldness before God, but, obeying Saint Eudoxia, he prayed and in the Name of Christ commanded the dead man to get up. In front of everyone present, the young man came to life.

The Monk Evdokia returned to her monastery, where she labored for 56 years.

After the death of Diogenes, Vincent, a cruel persecutor of Christians, became the ruler. Learning about the fearless confessor Christian faith he ordered her to be executed. On March 1 (c. 160-170) the holy venerable martyr was beheaded.
