The Holy Martyr Eustathius of Mtskhet.

Commemorated July 29 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

A Persian, born in the village of Arbuket, he went to the town of Mtskhet at the age of thirty and, seeing the life and faith of the Christians, received baptism. He was tortured for Christ and beheaded in Tiflis in 589. His relics are preserved in the cathedral at Mtskhet, and give healing to the faithful.
