Tryphon of Campsada

Saint Tryphon of Campsada was a third-century Christian saint, born in 232 in Lampsacus. Living in an age when fidelity to Christ could demand everything, he belongs to that early generation of believers whose witness helped strengthen the Church’s faith and hope. Tryphon died in 250, and his memory has endured through the devotion of communities who continue to honor him as their patron. He is especially venerated in Adelfia, Alessano, Kotor, Marzano di Nola, Onano, Pallini, Pulsano, and Vytina, where his name remains a sign of God’s steadfast care across many places and peoples. The Church celebrates his feast each year on February 1, inviting the faithful to seek his intercession and to persevere in courageous trust in the Lord.
