9th November - Saint Theodore - Independent Catholic News: One of the most famous Roman soldier-martyrs, almost nothing is known of his life except his martyrdom in the 4th century. Theodore was called a wonder worker. As a young recruit, while his legion was wintering at Amasea near Pontus, he was ordered to worship idols. He refused. When he was called before the governor he said: 'Jesus Christ is my one God. There is no limb I would not sacrifice if God demanded it.'
