I was recently commissioned to translate some profound and inspiring works by our Righteous Father Alexei Mechev, which I put together in a booklet. Unfortunately, after printing 500 copies, circumstances changed and the one who commissioned the work has been hospitalized and called off the purchase. Since I am at an unforeseen personal loss with this, I wanted to make these never before translated texts available to my followers for only $11.95 a copy, which includes shipping and handling. I would like to sell all of these as quick as possible, and it would be great reading material for the lenten season. As an added incentive, for the first 50 people who order, I will also offer a never before published text by Fr. John Romanides titled "The Canon and the Inspiration of the Holy Scripture" free of charge.

Saint John, Bishop of Irenopolis

St. John of Irenopolis (Feast Day - February 4)

Verses

And John, on behalf of orthodoxy,
Rebuked the impious, with boldness.

Our Venerable Father John was Bishop of Irenopolis, and was one of the Three Hundred and Eighteen God-bearing Fathers of the First Ecumenical Synod gathered in Nicaea in the year 325. Though it has been believed in he was the Bishop of Irenopolis in Cilicia, in the Synodal lists of the Nicene Fathers the Bishop of Irenopolis in Cilicia was Narcissus. In consequence of this, it is believed that John was the Bishop of Irenopolis in Isauria. He reposed in peace.
