☦️ Today we celebrate the 26 martyrs of Zographou Monastery on Mt. Athos who were martyred by the Latins. 📖 Quoted from the Orthodox Patristic Witness Concerning Catholicism (p. 41), from UncutMountainPress.com The pictures after the quote were taken during our recent trip to Zographou Monastery. Here are their descriptions in order of their posting: The main courtyard of the monastery, a monument dedicated to the 26 martyrs, the dome from a newly-painted chapel, a fresco depicting the 26 martyrs of Zographou in the same newly-painted chapel.
