The holy, glorious, all-laudable '''Apostle Junia''' of the [[Apostles#The_Seventy|Seventy]] is commemorated by the Church on [[May 17]] with [[Apostle Andronicus]], and on [[January 4]] with the Seventy. The Seventy Apostles were chosen and sent forth to preach by [[Christ]] ([[Gospel of Luke |Luke]] 10:1). Ss. Junia and Andronicus were relatives of the holy [[Apostle Paul]]. St Paul mentions them an [[Epistle]]: ''Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ, before me'' ([[Romans]] 16:7). The service in honor of these saints states that they suffered martyrdom for Christ. ==Source==*[http://ocafs.oca.org/FeastSaintsViewer.asp?SID=4&ID=1&FSID=101406 St Junia] – [[OCA]] webwite [[Category:Biblical Saints|Junia]][[Category:Martyrs|Junia]][[Category:Saints|Junia]] [[ro:Apostolul Iunia]]LOL INTERNET
