He was gifted with the ability to heal the sick and cast out demons. One of the most famous stories about him is his miraculous healing of the daughter of Emperor Gordian III, whom he freed from a tormenting spirit.

For this act, the emperor offered him a generous reward, but Trifon declined the wealth, choosing instead to give it to the poor. He is also known for his prayers for good harvests and the well-being of animals, for which he earned the title of patron saint of farmers and gardeners.

During the reign of Emperor Decius (249–251), when Christians faced persecution, Saint Trifon was captured and met a martyr's death for his faith. He refused to renounce Christianity and was ultimately beheaded in 250.
