How Saint Iakovos of Evia Saved a Professor from a Dangerous Situation


Mr. D.M., a Professor of Literature in Greek Education, told us on 2 February 1997 at the Theological School where we were with Holy Skull of Venerable David the Elder the following:

"One night, a few days ago, I saw very vividly in my dream Elder Iakovos [Tsalikis] and he said to me:

'My child D., open the hood of your car, because you are in danger.'

Indeed, in the morning, before heading out, I opened the hood and saw that the engine was covered in oil and there was no oil in the engine at all.

When I towed the car to the garage, the mechanic found that the brakes were also diminished [not working].

The Elder saved me from great danger."
