A fervent Christian, he secretly encouraged imprisoned believers to remain steadfast before courageously declaring his own faith before the Emperor Diocletian. Sentenced to be pierced by arrows, he miraculously survived through divine grace and the care of Saint Irene of Rome, returning to boldly reprove the emperor before completing his martyrdom. Renowned throughout the Christian world, Saint Sebastian is venerated as the premier heavenly patron of athletes, runners, sports competitors, soldiers, military guards, archers, and first responders, as well as a miraculous protector against contagious plagues, pestilence, and physical afflictions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA Blessed Spiritual Gift:\u003c\/strong\u003e An extraordinary, high-end gift for athletes, coaches, soldiers, police officers, name days (Sebastianos, Sebastiani, Sebastian - December 18th), baptisms, feast days, housewarmings, or personal prayer corners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIcon Representation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Saint Sebastian the Holy Martyr (Ὁ Ἅγιος Σεβαστιανός)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium Gold Leaf Canvas on Solid Wooden Panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Byzantine Monastic Iconography with Vibrant Red Border\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInclusions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Official Certificate of Authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAesthetic:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-End Premium Feel with Luminous Light Reflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handcrafted following traditional Orthodox monastic techniques\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Monasticgifts","offers":[{"title":"5x7 cm (1,97x2,76 in)","offer_id":60407719297358,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7x10 cm (2,76x3,94 in)","offer_id":60407719330126,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10x14 cm (3,94x5,51 in)","offer_id":60407719362894,"sku":null,"price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14x20 cm (5,51x7,87 in)","offer_id":60407719395662,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x28 cm (7,87x11,02 in)","offer_id":60407719428430,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28x40 cm (11,02x15,75 in)","offer_id":60407719461198,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Custom Size Ask for the Price","offer_id":60407719493966,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/5086\/8558\/files\/batch__1_08b5db17-e43b-4ee6-9ed6-e77aa2122795.png?v=1786955149","url":"https:\/\/monasticgifts.com\/products\/saint-sebastian-patron-of-athletes-orthodox-icon-gold-leaf","provider":"Monasticgifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
