Born in Cilicia; was a bishop in the city of Gangri. He was at the First Ecumenical Council. Famous everywhere for his pious life and miracle-working. Emperor Constantius ordered the construction of a statue of Hypatius during the life of this saint, and the emperor kept this statue in his court as a weapon against any opposing force. Once returning from Constantinople, Hypatius was attacked in a strait by the heretic, Novatian, and pushed off the road into some mud. In that one woman from that group hit him on the head with a stone, and thus the saint ended his earthly life. But that woman suddenly went crazy, and took the same stone and hit herself with it. When they brought her to the grave of Saint Hypatius and prayed to God for her, she was healed by the great mercy of the spirit of Hypatius, and lived the rest of her life in repentance and prayer. Saint Ipatija suffered and moved to the eternal kingdom of Christ God in 326.
