Byzantine Hand Painted Icon of Saint Therapon.
Saint Therapon was a monk with a very deep faith. After living for some years in Jerusalem, he went to Cyprus where he was ordained a Bishop.
For many years he encouraged the faith of his flock and performed great miracles for them, until the moment when Arab pirates attacked and killed him while he was at the Holy Table.
Troparion of Saint Therapon
By sharing in the ways of the Apostles, / you became a successor to their throne. / Through the practice of virtue, you found the way to divine contemplation, O inspired one of God; / by teaching the word of truth without error, you defended the Faith, / even to the shedding of your blood. / Hieromartyr Therapon, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
