Machine translation from the original · Show original
Saint Euphalia lived in the 3rd century and was from Sicily. Her mother was a pagan and suffered from bleeding. The holy martyrs Alphius, Philadelphus and Cyprin appeared to her in a dream (their memory is celebrated on May 10) and told her that she would be healed if she believed in Christ. She was baptized and healed; Then she baptized her daughter too. Her son, Sermilian, having learned about this, wanted to kill his mother, and brutally beat his sister Euphalia and gave her to a servant for corruption. With her prayer Saint Euphalia blinded the servant, and she herself was beheaded with a sword from her brother.
