☦ Eastern Orthodox Christianity: St. Paraskeva 💜 Patron Saint of Those With Eye Problems

I promised I would post this after praying the Akathist to St. Paraskeva. I chose her name for my 4th Chrismation name when I re-dedicated my life to Christ in the early 1990's.

Prayer~Greek Orthodox Church of Saint Paraskevi, Saint Barbara and Saint John the Merciful

“Prayer is a refuge for those who are shaken, an anchor for those tossed by waves, a walking stick for the infirm, a treasure house for the poor, a stronghold for the rich, a destroyer of sicknesses, a preserver of health. Prayer keeps our virtues intact and quickly removes all evil.”


Saint John Chrysostom
