Saint Photini the Great Martyr

Saint Photini (the Samaritan Woman) is the woman who met Christ at Jacob's Well, as recounted in the Gospel of John. Enlightened by that encounter, she became an apostle to the nations, preaching the Faith boldly across Africa and Rome before her martyrdom under Emperor Nero. Venerated as Equal-to-the-Apostles and Great Martyr, she is celebrated on the Sunday of the Samaritan Woman and on March 20. Our handcrafted collection honors her memory through Byzantine devotional items, each made in our Ohio workshop using traditional techniques.
