Saint Spyridon (whose body remains incorrupt since 348)

Описание: This icon of Spyridon is from the Cathedral of Chania, Crete, Greece. Filmed by me. 06.09.20. COUNTLESS MIRACLES CONNECTED WITH THIS SAINT. READ: Saint Spyridon died in Tremithousa, Cyprus where he was buried, in 348 A.D, but when the Saracens invaded Cyprus in 648 A.D, his body was exhumed and taken to Constantinople, Byzantium for burial. On exhumation, THE BODY, ALTHOUGH HAVING BEEN BURIED FOR 300 (!) YEARS, WAS WELL PRESERVED, AND GAVE OUT A DISTINCT AROMA OF BASIL, the king of herbs, both considered signs of Saints or “Incorruptibles” (Saints and holy men and women whose bodies have not decomposed).

Nowadays his relics are preserved at the Church of Saint Spyridon in Corfu, Greece. The relics, which ARE SAID TO HAVE THE TEMPERATURE OF A LIVING BODY (!!) AND FLESH WHICH HAS REMAINED SUPPLE, have been studied and examined by many scientists from around the world, NONE OF THEM HAVE AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS PHENOMENON!

Saint Spyridon is known as “The walking Saint”, HIS SILK SLIPPERS NEED TO BE REPLACED FREQUENTLY AS IT IS SAID THEY WEAR OUT AS HE WALKS THE WORLD PERFORMING MIRACLES, his coffin has a removable bottom, to make things easier when replacing his shoes, which is done on his feast Day, when thousands of pilgrims visit and kiss his feet.

INCREDIBLE MIRACLES OF SAINT SPYRIDON DURING HIS LIFETIME ON EARTH:

Through simplicity and deep devotion to God, he worked miracles throughout his life and became known as a great wonder-worker, CALLING FORTH RAIN IN THE MIDST OF DROUGHT, casting out demons with a single word, healing the sick and even RAISING PEOPLE FROM THE DEAD, in addition to HAVING THE GIFT OF PRESCIENCE.

When he arrived back home from Nicea a woman told him that she had given his daughter, who had died while he was away, some jewelry for safekeeping. Now that his daughter was dead, no one could find where she had put them. Spyridon WENT TO HIS DAUGHTER´S GRAVE, SPOKE TO HER; AND WAS ABLE TO RESTORE THE JEWELRY TO ITS OWNER.

Also during a famine Spyridon changed a snake into gold pieces so that a poor man could buy food from a greedy merchant who had cornered the supply.

One day there was only himself and the deacon and readers in church at vespers, and the responses could be heard beautifully chanted by an unseen choir. The music was so beautiful that others, passing by, heard it and saw through the windows what seemed like a large congregation. Entering the church, however, they found only St. Spyridon and his assistants.
