PHOCAS, martyr (about A.D. 320)
At Antioch, after many sufferings endured for the name of Christ, Phocas triumphed over the Old Serpent, a victory which is testified, to this day, by a miracle. for whoever is bitten by a serpent, having touched, full of faith, the door of the basilica of the martyr, is immediately cured, the poison at once losing its power; so says the Roman Martyrology.

Goodmorning,
Living in Berchem St Agatha, I can tell you that it's now almost a part of
Brussels, at the West-North-West of the Center, although it should have been
in the eleventh century a village, almost 6 km from Brussels. build on the
road to Ghent. As it is at the border of Brussels, it is rather green, and
to be honest, one of the more agreable parts of Brussels. If you want somme
more information, I'll be glad to help.
