Macra was a Christian woman from Reims who lived during the third century. During the Diocletianic Persecution, she was targeted by the governor Rictius Varus, who sought to eliminate Christianity in Gaul. Despite facing various forms of torture, including being tied to a stake and being forced to roll on hot coals and broken pottery, she refused to renounce her faith. She eventually died while praying, having survived several attempts on her life through what was described as divine intervention.
