Greece and constructed in the traditional Orthodox manner.
Iconographer: Father Romanos
Commemorates on: September 22
This saint was known for the many miracles he worked and for his apostolic zeal
in shepherding the flock of Sinope. He contested for the Faith during the reign
of the Emperor Trajan, in the year 102, when he was burned to death in a
bath-house. A homily in his honor was composed by Saint John Chrysostom. The
translation of his holy relics is celebrated on July 23.
The icon reproductions are created by iconographer monks of various Greek Orthodox monasteries in Greece and all images are approved replications by the Greek Orthodox Church. As icons are considered to be the Gospel in image, these images are accurate and true Orthodox renderings, not second-hand interpretations. The icon images are mounted on solid wood and protected from tarnish with a varnish finish that seals in colors and creates a shiny luster.
