Readings Psalm 2 Psalm 51 Genesis 27:1–29 Mark 8:22–38 Formula of Concord: Solid Declaration II:27–38 Commemoration Today we commemorate Perpetua and Felicitas, Martyrs. In the third century AD, Roman Emperor Septimus Severus forbade converting to Christianity. Among the many who disobeyed his edict were Perpetua and Felicitas, a noblewoman and her maidservant. During their imprisonment, they witnessed to others in prison, even the jailer, who himself became a Christian. Executed on 07 March 203, Perpetua and Felicitas are remembered for the firmness of their faith — even unto death.
