The holy, glorious and right-victorious Great-[[martyr]] '''Phanourios''' (also ''Fanurius, Fanourios, Phanourius'') the Newly Appeared of Rhodes, the Miracle-Worker, is commemorated by the Church on [[August 27]]. There is no literature available in the church prior to discovering his little church in Rhodes so not much is known about St. Phanourios's life other than the images of his martyrdom on his [[icon]].

# In this image, it is obvious that the Roman magistrate has sentenced the saint to the executioners for remaining unmoved in Station 6. The saint is again shown naked with executioners torching (burning) his body.

# At this station, the executioners are now using mechanical means to torture the saint. He appears tied to an apparatus that rotates to crush his bones. Though his body is truly suffering intensely for God, the look on his face is peaceful and patient.

# This last scene is the glorification of the saint and end to his martyrdom. He is standing upright, over flames in a large kiln.

==Phanouropita==

The custom of the Phanouropita ("Phanourios" and "pita" for "bread" or "cake") is a Greek and Cypriot tradition, preserved in many regions of Greece and Cyprus and spread to the Greek people of the diaspora. Though it is not a Holy Tradition, it has been welcomed and adopted formerly into the church as a blessing service, that take no more than 5 minutes to complete.
