Tatyana was born around 200 g. In Rome. She was the daughter of noble, rich people. Her parents were Christians, but hid their faith, because in those days Christians had a hard time. In pagan times, Christians were prone to persecution, often died with a martyrdom. This bitter fate of Tatyana did not go around.

When Tatyana grew up, she began to help the poor, orphans, looked after sick people. In addition, Tatyana helped women prepare for the sacrament of baptism, served during the rite.
In these years, citizens of Rome made sacrifices to pagan gods. Tatyana ordered the victim to Apollo, to which she refused to do this and began to pray. A strange event happened - the statue of Apollo collapsed. But this sign did not stop the tormentors. Tatyana was thrown into prison, she was beaten, tortured. However, the girl did not renounce the Orthodox faith.
Along with this, something strange happened - the wounds on the girl’s body healed overnight, as if they were not at all. It was decided to send Tatyana to the circus arena and release a lion there. Many Christians died such a brutal death. Locals were going to look at this action, as if fun. But when the lion was released, he went to the girl and licked her legs. The audience began to be indignant and argue that the lion is manual. However, when a volunteer left the hall, Leo immediately attacked him.
The government gave the order to burn the girl. However, the fire did not touch the body of the righteous, who diligently prayed to God and asked him to forgive tormentors and illuminate their hearts. Then it was decided to decapitate Tatyana. Father could not look at the torment of his daughter, and died together in her.
