Venerable Stylianus 12/9/2013
Saint Stylianus lived in Paphlagonia and was a fellow citizen and a contemporary of Saint Alypius. His love for the Lord Jesus Christ was boundless and this love led him into valiant ascetic struggles. He gave up everything only his love for God to remain undivided. Before his death angels of God came to take away his soul and his face shone like the sun. He was a great miracle-worker during his lifetime and after he departed this world. He is an intercessor with God especially for the healing of sick children and for the cure of barren people.
