Perpetua and Felicity were early Christian martyrs who gave their lives for Christ in Carthage, North Africa, during the persecution under Emperor Septimius Severus in the year 203. Perpetua was a young noblewoman and mother, while Felicity was an enslaved woman who was also expecting a child. Despite their different social circumstances, the two women shared a deep faith and were united in their witness to Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth were arrested for refusing to renounce Christianity and were imprisoned with other catechumens. Felicity gave birth shortly before their execution, and the two women faced martyrdom with remarkable courage. Their account, preserved in the early Christian document known as the Passion of Perpetua and Felicity, is one of the most important surviving records of early Christian martyrdom. They are honored among the saints of the early Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeast Day:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 7 | \u003cstrong\u003eMartyrdom:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 7, 203, at Carthage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatronage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mothers, expectant mothers, and those facing persecution for their faith.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"saints-perpetua-and-felicity-holy-card","title":"Saints Perpetua and Felicity Holy Card","description":"\u003cp\u003eSts.
