The Fifteen Hieromartyrs of Tiberiopolis (Strumica), martyred under Julian the Apostate.
The fifteen hieromartyrs, among them the bishops Timothy and Theodore and the priests Eusebius, Peter and others, fled Nicaea during the persecution of Julian the Apostate and settled at Tiberiopolis in Macedonia, the present Strumica, where they preached the Gospel.
They were arrested and beheaded there, and their relics became a source of many healings.
