Holy Great Martyr Theodore Stratilatus. This saint is celebrated (on February 8), and his life is described there, and on June 8, the transfer of his relics from Heraklia to Euhait is celebrated. This is what Saint Theodore bequeathed to his servant Varus during his martyrdom: "My body," he said, "lay in Euhaita on the property of my ancestors." St. Anastasius of Sinai recorded this miracle of the icon of St. Theodore: in the place of Karsat near Damascus there was a church in the name of St. Theodore Stratilatus. When the Saracens conquered Damascus, a group of Saracens with women and children settled in that church. On the wall was a fresco image of Saint Theodore. A Saracen shot an arrow and hit the figure of the saint in the face. For once, blood flowed from the figure. Soon after that, that whole group of Saracens died out right there in the church. Saint Anastasius says that he was personally in that church, saw the image of the saint in the courtyard and traces of congealed blood.
