Handmade Byzantine Icon of Saint Theodosia.
Saint Theodosia was born and raised in Tire in Phoenicia and was a faithful Christian. She was denounced to the lord Urban for her faith and he ordered her torture, in order make her deny Christianity.

Apolytikion of Saint Theodosia
Fourth Tone
O Lord Jesus, unto Thee Thy lamb doth cry with a great voice: O my Bridegroom, Thee I love; and seeking Thee, I now contest, and with Thy baptism am crucified and buried. I suffer for Thy sake, that I may reign with Thee; for Thy sake I die, that I may live in Thee: accept me offered out of longing to Thee as a spotless sacrifice. Lord, save our souls through her intercessions, since Thou art great in mercy.
