Knowing that his death approached, he took seven of his disciples and told them to dig a grave in the form of a cross. He then lay down in the grave and died, and was buried by his disciples.When the faithful later opened his grave, they found it to be empty. But on this date every year a fine powder, called manna by the people, poured forth from the grave, and was used by the faithful for healing of ailments of body and soul.Troparion — Tone 2O beloved Apostle of Christ our God, / come quickly to deliver your helpless people. / He on whose breast you leaned, will accept you as intercessor. / Entreat Him, O Theologian, to disperse the clouds of darkness, / granting us peace and great mercy!Kontakion — Tone 2Who shall declare your greatness, O Virgin disciple? / For as a fountain of healing you flow with miracles, / interceding for our souls as Theologian and friend of Christ!Mass Schedule

"When they are not near a Roman Catholic Church, Roman Catholics are permitted to receive the Holy Communion in Orthodox Churches; and the same is also extended to Orthodox when they are not near an Orthodox Church." (From the book The Thyateira Confession p. 69, written by His Eminence Athenagoras Kokkinakis, Orthodox Archbishop of Thyateira and Great Britain, published by The Faith Press, in 1975, with the blessing and authorisation of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.)

"Επιτρέπεται εξ απόψεως Ρωμαιοκαθολικής να μεταλαμβάνουν εν καιρώ ανάγκης οι Ρωμαιοκαθολικοί εις Ορθοδόξους Εκκλησίας και οι Ορθόδοξοι εν καιρώ ανάγκης να μεταλαμβάνουν εις Ρωμαιοκαθολικάς Εκκλησίας." (Από το βιβλίο The Thyateira Confession σελ. 209, υπό του Σεβασμιοτάτου Αρχιεπισκόπου Θυατείρων και Μεγάλης Βρεττανίας Αθηναγόρου Κοκκινάκη - εκδόσεις The Faith Press - 1975, με την ευλογία και εγκρίση του Οικουμενικού Πατριαρχείου Κωνσταντινουπόλεως.)
