Saint John Maximovitch Icon: Handmade Orthodox Wooden Icon

Description

This handmade wooden icon depicts Saint John Maximovitch of San Francisco, a beloved 20th-century Russian Orthodox saint known for his deep humility, ascetic life, miracles, and pastoral care. Born in 1896, he served as a bishop in Shanghai and later in San Francisco, tirelessly ministering to the faithful and helping the poor, orphans, and refugees.

He reposed in 1966 and was glorified as a saint by the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia in 1994. Saint John is venerated for his incorrupt relics and countless miracles reported through his intercessions.

This Byzantine-style icon is crafted on natural wood, making it a perfect piece for prayer corners, Christian home decor, or as a meaningful gift.
