St. Thyrsos from his childhood desired to live a virtuous life. At a young age he was ordained a deacon, then a presbyter and in the end Bishop of Karpasia. In 965, St. Thyrsos chose a suitable replacement as Bishop, and withdrew to a cave in Karpasia in order to live as an ascetic. There numerous faithful would visit him daily, until he died and at which time he was buried. Next to his grave a church was built in his honor. His feast day is on July 23.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.
Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.
Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
