The Hieromartyr Audas, Bishop of the City of Suza.

Commemorated March 31 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

He was beheaded for Christ in 418 in Persia by King Yezdegeherd. His deacon, St Benjamin, was released by the torturers on condition that he preach the Gospel no more. He observed this condition for a time, but his heart could not bear it and he began again to spread the truth of Christ among the people. For this he was arrested and killed in 421, three years after St Audas.
