The Holy '''Apostle Nicanor''' of the [[Apostle|Seventy]] was among the first [[deacon]]s in the Church along with [[Apostle Stephen the Protomartyr|Stephen]], [[Apostle Philip (of the Seventy)|Philip]], [[Apostle Parmenas|Parmenas]], [[Apostle Prochorus|Prochorus]], [[Apostle Timon |Timon ]] and Nicholas. Although they died at various times and in various places, they are commemorated together on [[July 28]]. St Nicanor also commemorated on [[January 4]] with the [[Synaxis]] of the 70 Holy Apostles.

In the [[Acts of the Holy Apostles]] (6:1-6) it is said that the twelve [[Apostle]]s chose seven men full of the [[Holy Spirit]] and wisdom, and appointed them to serve as deacons.

Although St Nicanor suffered on the same day that the holy Protomartyr Stephen ([[December 27]]) and many other Christians were killed by stoning, he is commemorated on [[December 28]].
