St. Matrona was the servant of a Jewish woman named Pantilla, the wife of the governor of [[Thessalonica]]. When Matrona refused to follow her mistress into the [[synagogue]], Pantilla beat her so severely that she died a few days later, and thus received the crown of her confession.<ref>[http://home.iprimus.com.au/xenos/matrona.html St Matrona of Thessalonica] ([[GOAA]])</ref>

Αυτή θεράπαινα υπήρξε Παντίλλης τινός Ιουδαίας, γυναικός στρατοπεδάρχου εν τη Θεσσαλονικέων πόλει," which translates to: "Miracle of the Holy Martyr Matrona of Thessaloniki. She cured a Jewess named Pantilla, the wife of a garrison commander in the city of the Thessalonians."<ref>Tafrali, O., ''Topographie de Thessalonique'', Paris 1913, p. 184.</ref>

:O Lord Jesus, unto You Your lamb cries with a great voice, "O my Bridegroom, You I love; and seeking You, I now contest, and with Your baptism I am crucified and buried. I suffer for Your sake, that I may reign with You; for Your sake I die, that I may live in you. Accept me, offered out of longing to You as a spotless sacrifice." Lord, save our souls through her intercessions, since You are great in mercy.
