The holy and glorious [[Martyr]] '''Zlata of Meglen''' (also ''Chryse'' or ''Chryssi'' of ''Meglena'' or ''Meglin'') is remembered for defending her faith as a Christian. Her [[feast day ]] is celebrated on [[October 13]].
Zlata was born in the eighteenth century in the village of Slatina, in the province of Meglen, to a poor, peasant family with three other daughters. She was a meek and devout girl, wise in the wisdom of [[Christ]] and golden in both name ("Chryse") and God-fearing heart.
