102 Paterikon for Kids - Saint David of Euboia

Saint David of Euboia is the third saint featured in the Paterikon series that is from the third-largest Greek island, the island of Euboia.

Saint David was a refugee, who suffered persecution, imprisonment, and torture for not renouncing his faith in the true Triune God.

We celebrate his memory on November 1.

Saint Iakovos Tsalikis (95) is one of the modern-day Greek Elders. He was the abbot of a full-of-life monastery on the island of Euboia, the same monastery where Saint David of Euboia (Paterikon #102) spent the last part of his life. November 27.
