Saint Jason

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jason appears in the Bible in Acts 17. His house is used as a refuge by Paul and Silas in Thessalonica. Jason was arrested when the authorities could locate neither Paul nor Silas, and was made to post bail. He was not reimbursed.

Jason is venerated as a saint in Catholic and Orthodox traditions. His feast day is July 12 (Catholic) and April 28 (Orthodox).
