Centurio Acacius of Byzantium - Martyr

Click on link for description and beautiful picture of a statue dedicated to Acacius who was martyred in the reign of Diocletian
 
Almighty God, who didst give thy servant Centurio Acacius boldness to
confess the Name of our Savior Jesus Christ before the rulers
of this world, and courage to die for this faith:  Grant that we
may always be ready to give a reason for the hope that is in
us, and to suffer gladly for the sake of the same our Lord
Jesus Christ; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy
Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.  Amen.
