Saint Photini was the Samaritan Woman who encountered Christ our Saviour at Jacob’s Well (John 4:1-42). Afterwards she laboured in the spread of the Gospel in various places, and finally received the crown of martyrdom in Rome with her two sons and five sisters, during the persecutions under the Emperor Nero.
