Calendar for February 25 Saint Meletius of Antioch
He dedicated his entire life to the fight against the Aryan heresy. With the archbishop's rank, he was persecuted by heretics three times in Armenia. Once, while he was speaking to the people about the Holy Trinity, his deacon, a heretic, closed his mouth with his fist and he continued to speak with signs. At the Second Ecumenical Council, God manifested the following miracle through him: While he was proving the dogma of the Holy Trinity to the Arians, he raised three fingers apart, and when he brought them together, light like lightning flashed from his hand. At this Council, Saint Meletius established Saint Gregory the Theologian on the throne of Constantinople. Earlier, he had ordained Saint Basil the Great as a deacon and baptized Saint John Chrysostom. He reposed in Constantinople, after the end of the Council. His relics were transferred to Antioch.
Saint Alexy, Metropolitan of Moscow. Venerable Mary. Saint Anthony, Patriarch of Constantinople. Saint Kaliya.
