Saint George was born in 1808 in Ioannina to a poor family and was orphaned at a young age. Ηe worked as a groom and married to have a family.

In 1836 he was reported to the local lord, with false accusations, that while he had converted to Islam, he was living as a Christian. He was not found guity for this accusation but a few years later the same charge was brought against him.

Saint George once again confessed his true faith, which he never changed, but his accusers were not convinced and ordered his hanging.

The icon arrived in the mail on the day of the baptism and I was able to present it to the newly illumined Christian. Thank you for your excellent customer service.
