Description
Have you ever felt the sting of a past failure, a fall so deep you wondered if return was possible? The lives of the Holy New Venerable-Martyrs Euthymios, Ignatios, and Akakios are a blazing testament that no sin can overcome God’s love for man, and that even from apostasy man can find in repentance a path to the heights of heaven.
Once prodigal sons lost to the world and the delusion of Mohammed, these three men found their way back to Christ in the stillness of the Holy Mountain. There, in the Skete of the Precious Forerunner, they forged their souls in the furnace of asceticism—fasting, weeping, and praying unceasingly—preparing for one final, glorious act: to confess the Lord Jesus Christ in the very heart of the Ottoman empire and offer their lives for the Faith they once denied.
Their story is a thunderous proclamation of the power of repentance, a radiant beacon for our times.
This digital volume brings their incredible spiritual warfare to life for the first time in a modern, detailed English translation.
- The Lives of the Three New Venerable-Martyrs: Drawn from the 1862 Hellenic text by Onouphrios of Iveron Monastery, this is a moving and authentic account of their fall, their soul-shattering repentance on Mount Athos, and their courageous martyrdoms. Witness the divine visions that confirmed their path, the unshakeable boldness they showed before their tormentors, and the breathtaking miracles that confirmed their sainthood—including the holy head of St. Euthymios opening its eyes after death to look upon his brethren.
- Original Akathist Hymn: Deepen your veneration with a soul-profiting Akathist Hymn to the three Saints, an original composition from our monastery written for use in the True Orthodox Church. It is a powerful tool for prayer, allowing you to call upon these triumphant champions for strength, courage, and help in your own spiritual struggles.
- Beautifully Designed for Reading & Prayer: This is more than just text. The 69-page PDF is a work of art, with comfortable fonts, elegant page borders, and coloured illustrations, perfect for reading on a screen or printing for your prayer corner. The EPUB is reflowable for any e-reader, containing the same high-resolution illustrations.
