From the Prologue of Ochrid
Brothers by birth from the Greek region of Myrmidonia. From childhood they were raised in Christianity, with a vow that they would always live in virginity and serve the Church. Julius was a presbyter and Julian a deacon. From Emperor Theodosius the Younger they obtained a decree allowing them throughout the entire empire to destroy idols and build Christian churches. Like two apostles, these two brothers converted non-Christians to Christianity in the East and West and built churches. They built one hundred churches during their lifetime. They reposed peacefully in the Lord near Milan. The inhabitants of Milan invoke Saint Julius for help against wolves.
