The Meaning of the Saint John the Theologian Icon

Saint John the Theologian is honored as the beloved disciple and an eyewitness of Christ’s ministry. Together with Peter and his brother James, he witnessed the Transfiguration. At the Cross, Christ entrusted His mother to John’s care.

Orthodox tradition identifies him as the author of the fourth Gospel, three epistles, and Revelation. His writings proclaim the eternal Word made flesh and call believers to remain in truth and love.

An icon of Saint John invites contemplation rooted in communion with Christ. His witness reminds us that love for God and love for one another belong together in the Christian life.

Materials & craftsmanship

Handcrafted in Greece on a solid wood panel, reproduced with museum-quality Byzantine seriography and finished with genuine 18kt gold leaf.

Shipping & returns

Ships from Boynton Beach, Florida. If anything is not right, you have 30 days from delivery to request a return (unused, in its original packaging), and we send you the return label.

Caring for your icon

Keep your icon out of direct sunlight and away from damp walls and heat. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth, and never use water or cleaning products on the gold leaf. If you keep a vigil lamp or candles nearby, leave space so soot does not settle on the icon.

Having your icon blessed

Many Orthodox Christians bring a new icon to their parish priest to be blessed before placing it in the home. Just bring it with you to church and ask Father after the service.
