St. Athena	Posted by PresEleni	on 2003-05-19 14:52:26	(read 8870 times)
To Whom It May Concern: I recently purchased a framed icon of St. Athena from Religious Mall and am very pleased, both with the icon and with the speed with which my order was fulfilled. However, I have a bit of a dilemma. I've checked with the Archdioceses of America and Australia as well as the church of Greece's websites to find information about St. Athena. The only information I have is that here memory is commemorated on September 1. Does anyone know anything about her life, or how she was martyred? It is very important that I find out whatever I can about this Righteous Martyr before giving her icon to my neice when she is baptized, as her mother is not Orthodox and is bound to ask about her life. Thank you for your assistance. Eleni Demetri

1 -		Classic Catholic Saint Icons Anastasia Size No.4550-60 Size : 6x9 cm This Saint, who was from Rome, was a most comely, wealthy, and virtuous maiden, the daughter of Praepextatus and Fausta. It was her mother who instructed her in the Faith of Christ. The Saint was joined to a man named Publius Patricius, who was prodigal in life and impious in disposition, but she was widowed after a short time. Henceforth, she went about secretly to the dwellings of the poor and the prisons where the Martyrs of Christ were, and brought them whatever was needed for their daily subsistence. She washed their wounds and loosed them from their fetters, and consoled them in their anguish. Also, because the Saint, through her intercessions, has healed many from the ill effects of spells, potions, poisons, and other harmful substances, she has received the name "Deliverer from Potions." Since the fame of her deeds had spread about, she was arrested by Diocletians minions, and after enduring many torments she was put to death by fire in the year 290					$6.53 250 gr
2 -		Classic Catholic Saint Icons George Size No.4550-60 Size : 6x9 cm George, this truly great and glorious Martyr of Christ, was born of a father from Cappadocia and a mother from Palestine. Being a military tribune, or chiliarch (that is, a commander of a thousand troops), he was illustrious in battle and highly honoured for his courage. When he learned that the Emperor Diocletian was preparing a persecution of the Christians, Saint George presented himself publicly before the Emperor and denounced him. When threats and promises could not move him from his steadfast confession, he was put to unheard-of tortures, which he endured with great bravery, overcoming them by his faith and love towards Christ. By the wondrous signs that took place in his contest, he guided many to the knowledge of the truth, including Queen Alexandra, wife of Diocletian, and was finally beheaded in 296 in Nicomedia. His sacred remains were taken by his servant from Nicomedia to Palestine, to a town called Lydda, the homeland of his mother, and then were finally transferred to the church which was rais					$6.53 250 gr
