SAINT JOHN OF RUSSIA

On the Greek island of Euboea, the incorrupt relics of Saint John of Russia are kept, making him one of the most beloved saints in Greece. Originally from southern Russia, Saint John is revered by countless Greeks due to the numerous miracles attributed to his relics and icons. He was a simple young man who spent much of his life in a stable. At the command of a Turkish bey, he was buried according to Christian rites, and his expensive burial garments were placed with him. After three years, he appeared to his spiritual father, and at the same time, a great light shone over his grave, revealing his incorrupt relics.
