St. Polycarp
Eighty-six years I have served him, and he has done me no wrong. How can I blaspheme my King who saved me?
— Martyrdom of Polycarp
A disciple of the Apostle John and bishop of Smyrna. As an old man he was tried and ordered to curse Christ. He refused and died at the stake. His words are among the oldest testimonies of faith. The faithfulness of a whole life is the most beautiful answer.
