Holy Martyr Urpasianus was a dignitary of Roman Emperor Galerius in the early 4th century. During the Christian persecutions perpetrated under Galerius martyr Urpasianus renounced his position as a servant of the emperor stating, "Henceforth I am a warrior of the Heavenly King, the Lord Jesus Christ. Take back the insignia that was given to me."[1] Consequently Urpasianus was tortured and executed by flame. Holy Martyr Urpasianus is commemorated 9 March in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
