Saint of the Day

St. Archmimus (5th century)
Archmimus was a servant of the vandal king, Genseric. When the king demanded him to renounce his faith, he refused. Not wanting to make a martyr of him, the king had him tortured and enslaved in the mines of Byzacena.

Virtue is nothing without the trial of temptation, for there is no conflict without an enemy, no victory without strife.
