@FChristopher77 I'm very torn, my grandma has dementia and before she fell ill to this she insisted on being cremated. Now that she has this disease, my family wants to fulfill her wishes when she had a clear mind. I'm the only Orthodox Christian in my family so I want to help her but how?
The Miraculous Shoes of Saint Spyridon of Trimythous
Following his passing, the body of Saint Spyridon was placed in a special reliquary and wrapped in costly vestments. Every six months, priests must change his garments. This practice is born out of genuine necessity rather than mere tradition.
Remarkably, the saint's clothing and shoes naturally wear out over time. Believers hold that Saint Spyridon continuously travels the earth, seeking out and assisting those in urgent need of his help.When two priests attempt to open the reliquary, they occasionally find it impossible to unlock. Faithful tradition dictates that during these moments, the saint is away from his tomb, actively walking the earth. In these instances, the priests simply wait for his return.
It is well-documented that the custom-made velvet slippers placed on his feet eventually accumulate distinct scuffs, dents, and tears, bearing the unmistakable signs of heavy outdoor use.
Once worn through, these slippers are replaced with fresh ones. The old shoes are then cut into small fragments and distributed to parishioners as a blessing. Wrapped carefully in small envelopes, each piece is sealed with the official blue stamp of the Church of Kerkyra.
These sacred pieces are known as filakho, a Greek term meaning a protective holy relic.
Let’s make a deal, we won’t fund NGOs in your country calling you to give away Ceuta and Melilla, and you will *stop* funding NGOs in our country that calls us to give away Judea and Samaria
