Ὁ Ἅγιος Βήρυλλος ἦταν ἀπὸ τὴν Ἀντιόχεια τῆς Συρίας. Ὑπῆρξε μαθητὴς τοῦ Ἁγίου Ἀποστόλου Πέτρου καὶ χειροτονήθηκε ἀπὸ αὐτὸν Ἐπίσκοπος Κατάνης στὴ Σικελία. Ποίμανε καλῶς καὶ θεοφιλῶς τὸ ποίμνιό του καὶ τὸ ὁδήγησε στὸν δρόμο τῆς σωτηρίας καὶ χειραγώγησε πολλοὺς ἀπὸ τοὺς ἄπιστους στὴν πίστη τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἐνῷ ἀξιώθηκε νὰ ἐπιτελεῖ μεγάλα θαύματα. Ἕνα ἀπὸ αὐτὰ εἶναι ἀναγκαῖο νὰ θυμηθοῦμε: Ὑπῆρχε στὸν τόπο ἐκεῖνο μία πηγή, ποὺ εἶχε πικρὸ νερό. Ὁ Ἅγιος ἀφοῦ προσευχήθηκε στὸν Θεό, τὸ μετέβαλε σὲ γλυκό. Ὅταν τὸ εἶδε αὐτὸ κάποιος Ἕλληνας, φανατικὸς εἰδωλολάτρης, πίστεψε στὸν Χριστὸ καὶ μαζί του καὶ ἄλλοι πολλοί. Καὶ ἄλλα πολλὰ θαύματα ἀφοῦ ἐπιτέλεσε καὶ ἔφθασε σὲ βαθὺ γῆρας, κοιμήθηκε μὲ εἰρήνη καὶ ἀπόλαυσε τὴν αἰώνια ζωή. Τὸ τίμιο λείψανό του κατατέθηκε μὲ τιμὲς στὸ νησί, προσφέροντας μέχρι σήμερα θεραπεῖες σὲ ὅλους ποὺ προσέρχονται σὲ αὐτὸν μὲ πίστη.
