The Church today venerates the memory of St. Paraskevi, considered by Orthodoxy as a healer of the blind and those afflicted with related ailments, because of the miracle she performed in restoring the sight of her tormentor, the Roman Emperor Antoninus Pius.
Features today are posted on St. Paraskevi’s life, miracles and martyr’s death, all on the Orthodoxia News Agency‘s web-pages.
