Town and church holidays
On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of St. Hermias. He is known by his people as a great fan of Christianity who lived in the territory of Cappadocia in the second century. At this time, the king was the leader, who continued to persecute the Christians, so he ordered the capture of Ermia, who respected Christ.
The king tried to make Hermias deny Christ, but he did not. For this, the king tortured him for a long time, but he did not even receive any harm, because of which they decided to poison him, but even this did not kill him. After a long attempt to kill Hermias, they hung him upside down and killed him with a sword three days later.
People believe that by looking at the weather outside the window, you can determine what the day will be like. Our ancestors noticed that if the weather is good on this day, it will snow.
