St. Cecilia (martyr) at the young age, vowed her virginity to God, against her will Cecilia's parents married her to Valerian of Trastevere. She told her husband that she was accompanied by an angel, but in order to see it, he must be purified. After returning from the baptismal ceremony Valerian found Cecilia in prayer accompanied by a praying angel. The angel placed a crown on each of their heads, and offered Valerian a favor; the new convert asked that his brother be baptized.
The two brothers developed a ministry of giving proper burial to martyred Christians for which and martyred for their faith. Cecilia buried them at her villa on the Apprian Way,
