St. Zoe. Exsuperius, also known as Hesperus, and his wife, Zoe, both Christians, were slaves of Catulus at Pamphylia, Asia Minor, during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. They refused to eat food offered to the Gods by their master on the birth of their son. This angered their master and Exsuperius, Zoe and their two sons, Syriacus and Theodulus, were tortured and then roasted to death in a furnace.

St. Zoe pray for us to be able to serve our only master, God.
