Hand painted icon of Saint Paisios and Saint Vitus, made in Mount Athos, on natural wood. The icon is delivered in a wooden box.
Saint Paisios was born in Pharassa, Cappadocia, he was baptized Christian and moved in Greece. From early childhood he had a desire to become a monk. He worked as a carpenter and served in the army as a radio broadcaster. He lived in Mount Athos in 1949, where he eventually passed away on July 12, 1994. Saint Paisios celebrates on July 12th.
Saint Vitus lived in the 3rd century AD in Sicily. Despite the efforts of his pagan father, Gelas, to turn him away from the Christian faith, Vitus remained devoted to Jesus Christ. He was arrested and endured torture during the persecutions of Diocletian, ultimately becoming a martyr for his faith. His relics are preserved in Prague, where a church has been built in his honor. Saint Vitus is considered the patron saint of actors and those suffering from epilepsy. His memory is honored by the Orthodox Church on June 15th.
