The Orthodox Church observes various religious commemorations on September 10 and 11, 2026.

On September 10, the calendar honors the Apostles Apelles, Luke, and Clement, alongside the martyrs Minodora, Mitrodora, and Nymfodora. The latter three sisters are recognized for their martyrdom in Bithynia, and their relics are traditionally associated with a place of worship in Imola, Italy.

On September 11, commemorations include Saint Theodora of Vasta, a Byzantine-era figure associated with a unique shrine in Arcadia, Greece, where trees grow from the roof. Also honored are Saint Euphrosynus the Cook, a monk recognized for his humility and service in a monastery kitchen, and Saint Euanthia. The day also marks the name day of Saint Theodora of Alexandria, who lived a monastic life under the name Theodore to atone for her past. Additionally, the Church recognizes Saint Deiniol of Wales, a founder of monasticism in Britain. These observances include specific name days for individuals such as Eva, Euphrosynos, and Theodora.
