St. Theodotus was married and an innkeeper in Ancyra during the reign of Diocletian. He maintained the inn in order to unsuspectedly help Christians. At that time, seven maidens were brought to trial and tortured for Christ, and drowned in a lake. One of them, St. Tekousa appeared in a dream to Theodotus and told to him to remove their bodies from the lake and bury them. Theodotus, with a companion, succeeded to locate all seven bodies and bury them. But his companion betrayed Theodotus to the judge and the judge subjectem him to cruel tortures. At the end he was beheaded in 303 AD. His feast day is on June 7.

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.
