Orthodox icon of Saint Sevastiane of Markianopolis.

Commemorated October 24th.

St. Sevastiane lived and struggled during the reign of Emperor Domitian (81-96 A.D.) and was baptized by St. Paul. She immediately became one his disciples and began traveling to different places preaching the gospel of Christ. Due to her missionary work as a Christian she was slandered before the Governor Sergius.

When asked to give an account before him, she remained steadfast in her faith for Christ. She boldly confessed her faith and that she received baptism by the Apostle Paul. She also announced that she was prepared to die for her Lord.

They cudgeled her body with lead balls and flung her into prison. While in prison the Apostle Paul appeared to her and said, “Rejoice and sorrow not, for thou wilt go to thine own homeland to confess Christ!”

Seven days later, the governor returned to torturing her. They cast her into a furnace of flames and when she remained unscathed after hours within the furnace, all were amazed and marveled at the power of her God. Upon exiting she uttered a prayer and all hear a dreadful noise from Heaven with thunder and lightning. Hailstone began to fall mightily and pelted the furnace, thus extinguishing the fire. Many were in danger of dying, including the governor, so frightened he departed with his retinue.

After this he found out where she was from and sent her away to her homeland, for the governor of that Herakleia to deal with. An angel appeared to her on her way and said, “Take courage, O daughter, though wilt stand before the governor and I shall be with thee.”

She stood before the governor for a great length of tiem. He sentenced her to be placed upon a wooden pulley block. Her body was rent asunder for over three hours, and her torn flesh yielded a fragrant myrrh. Throughout all of this St. Sevastiane remained silent and prayed. Those around her remarked that is was as if her body was without senses.

After they lowered her, they cast her as prey to wild animals. A great lion approached but when he neared her, by divine command, he took on a human voice. The lion then praised and blessed Christ’s martyr and censured and condemned the lawless and impious. A lioness then drew near and stood to the other side of the martyr. Both lions stood at either side of the saint, as innocent lambs.

The governor was amazed and was at a loss at how to proceed. Thus, he sentenced her to be beheaded outside of the city. But, o the wonder! Instead of blood flowing from the wound, milk gushed forth! (St. Paul was also beheaded and milk flowed from his wound as well) The governor full of fear commaned that her head be placed in a sack with three hundred pounds of lead and cast into the sea.

After this was done an angel tore the sack open and took her head along with the rest of her body to a place called Risetos. The angel then appeared to a senator’s wife named Ammia, who was told where to find the relics. Ammia then took them and annointed them with myrrh and they were then interred to a special place in Risetos, to the glory of God.

Pretty hard to clean
Color: Cinamutt Roll - Large, Size: Large
We've had this for about a week now. I have 2 dogs, one small one about 55lb. I bought this for my big girl, but lil man is determined to get the best of this toy. Usually they don't both go after the same toys, so this is interesting. The trouble is, neither one of them can get all the treats out if something makes it all the way down into the crevice. It's surprisingly deep. The up side is that they'll try for quite a while before giving up. The down side is even if you put it in the top rack of the dishwasher, something stuck deep in there isn't going anywhere until you dig it out yourself. I tried a plastic knife but it broke the second time I used it in there. I wound up using the metal handle of a reusable straw cleaner. Which then I had to wash that, too. Then it needs to dry overnight before it can be used again. All in all, the dogs like it fine, it's gross to scrape out and wash, takes longer than most toys to dry, and I have the feeling that will eventually cause me to pass it to someone else's dog long before my two have gotten tired of it. At this point I'm pulling out of the toy rotation for a week or two because I'm not ready to clean it a third time.

Hyena Proof
Color: Acorn - Large, Size: Large
I have an American Bulldog that would chew a brick if he didn’t have an alternative lying around. They won’t last forever (nothing does) but we’ve had two of these over the course of a year and for him that is nothing short of a miracle. And that is daily chewing like it’s his job. I highly recommend the Acornucopia for aggressive chewers with jaws like hyenas…so it’s probably great for your dog too.

This is an awesome product and affordably priced! I'll buy more in the future!
Color: Comet - Small, Size: Small
This is a great ball for my dog Polly! It doesn't stink or have any weird oils on the ball. It is definitely durable. It has a nice chirping sound and it's great exercise for my dog's jaws. It's not too bouncy and it's the perfect weight that she feels satisfied having in her mouth and when she catches it in mid-air. It's not too heavy that I have to worry about it knocking her teeth out. I almost cancelled the order after I found out the size of the ball, I thought it was a larger ball that Bark makes. It turns out it is larger than a tennis ball which is what I wanted. Someone gave us a black, knobby, ball that is 12.5 inches in diameter and she absolutely loves it, it's her favorite ball. It's the perfect size for her American Pit Bull mouth! I cannot find this product anywhere or a comparable alternative that's the same size. If you know where I can purchase another ball that I've described @ 12.5 in. diameter, please let me know! I'll likely buy this ball that was just delivered, today, in the future, if it's not discontinued! It's a great deal for only $14.99!! Thanks from a happy satisfied customer, V.B.
