I will get money in the mail to you I hope this week for the icons. I just love them so much and venerate with all my heart. They enrich my life at home and when I go to the church. They are there for me and others if they want to turn to them.

Russian icon - 2 Saints: Cosmas & Damian, Patrons of Doctors

Saints Cosmas and Damian (Greek: Κοσμάς και Δαμιανός) (also written Kosmas and Damianos) (died ca. 287) were twin brothers, physicians, and early Christian martyrs born in Cilicia, part of today's Turkey. They practiced their profession in the seaport of Ayas, Adana, then in the Roman province of Syria. Accepting no payment for their services led to them being named "Ανάργυροι" (Unmercenary); it has been said that, by this, they attracted many to the Christian faith. During the persecution under Diocletian, Cosmas and Damian were arrested by order of the Prefect of Cilicia, who ordered them under torture to recant. However, according to legend, they stayed true to their faith, enduring being hung on a cross, stoned and shot with arrows and finally suffered execution by beheading. Traditionally, Saints Cosmas and Damian are the holy patrons of doctors and persons of the Medical profession.
