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 in the United States (orders outside the US, please use a pay button towards the bottom of this page and include $5 for a total of $16.95). 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.

Venerable Martin the Bishop

Venerable Martin the Bishop (Feast Day - November 10)

Verses

Separated from life, short was the road,
The road to the heavens that Martin ran.

The Venerable Martin the Bishop met his end in peace.

Nothing else is known of this Saint Martin. Interestingly, Saint Martin of Tours and Saint Martin of Terracina, both Bishops, are celebrated on November 12th, and some believe the Saint Martin commemorated on November 10th is Saint Martin of Terracina, though both have different iambic verses. In the Latin Church, on November 11th Saint Martin of Tours is celebrated and on November 12th Saint Martin the Pope of Rome is celebrated, who is celebrated by the Greeks on April 13th. This being the case, the Saint Martin celebrated on November 10th can be one of these, or another Bishop we know nothing else about.
