Abramios and Mariatranslated

Saint Abramios gave up everything to dedicate his life to God. He lived for decades in the quiet of the desert, until the trial of his beloved niece, Maria, led him on an unexpected mission. When Mary was drawn into sin and sank into despair, the old ascetic did not abandon her. He disguised himself as a soldier and traveled to find her and remind her that God's mercy is greater than any human fall.

A cinematic rendition of the life of Saint Abraham and Saint Mary, a moving story of love, repentance and forgiveness.

The Orthodox Church honors their memory on October 29.
