The Commemoration of the Great Earthquake at Constantinople and St. Demetrios

Fr. John Bartholomew

This earthquake in Constantinople took place in 740 AD. This was at the time Emperor Leo was destroying icons and the people of Constantinople felt that it was God’s anger that led to this disaster. The believers prayed to St. Demetrios of Thessalonica and the earthquakes ceased.
