Orthodox icon of Saint George and his Mother Saint Polychronia

Commemorated April 23th

The Holy Martyr Polychronia (Polychronίa) was the mother of the Saint and Great Martyr George the Trophy- Bearer and was from the city of Lydda (Diospolis) in Palestine. She also came from a renowned and noble race. She was modest, brave, and filled with temperance, kindness and sweetness. Most of all, her soul loved God, prayer and humility. She spent her time reading the Divine Scriptures and praying. The blessed Polychronia accompanied her prayers and vigils with the virtues of continence and fasting. Thus, detached from the earth, her mind was lifted up to heaven and she immersed herself in divine vision (θεωρία).1 In this way, she transformed her surroundings and allowed the everlasting scent of her spiritual fragrance to diffuse in the idolatrous environment of her husband Gerontios.

Saint Polychronia secretly raised her son with the discipline and admonition of the Lord. She imparted to him her fervent love for Christ, as well as her deep reverence. When he faced martyrdom for the love of Christ, she was constantly close to him, both in the prison and in the place of martyrdom, always taking care to strengthen him with the Spotless Mysteries.

When Emperor Diocletian saw her speaking to Saint George, he called her to him and asked her who she was. She replied with spiritual courage: "My name is Polychronia and I am a Christian, like my son George, whom you think you are punishing, while he is being crowned by Christ the King." Enraged, Diocletian ordered her to be tortured at once. Then they suspended her on a tree and subjected her to even greater torments. They tore the flesh from her body with iron handcuffs so much that her innards were visible. Then they took lit candles and began to burn her wounds. Yet she remained steadfast in her faith and courageous in her thought. Still the executioners continued, placing red-hot iron shoes on her feet with tongs. Saint Polychronia, with the consolation of the Paraclete,2 conquered her pains and delivered her holy soul peacefully into God's hands.

Her holy relics were secretly taken by Christians who buried her, while praising God.

Exactly what I needed for traveling!
This Amazon Basics Travel Passport Wallet Organizer is amazing value for the price. It has multiple easily accessible slots & pockets that can be used for credit cards, boarding passes, receipts, pens, and currencies if traveling internationally. The wallet has a zipper which can safely secure folded documents such as immunization records, marriage certificates, and citizen forms if needed. The functional design is larger than I anticipated and the material feels well-made, solid, and looks nice. I could not fit the wallet in my pocket, but it easily fits into a backpack or purse. If I happen lose this or misplaced this one, I will be purchasing this again.

Great Hold-All
This seems to be well-made and I like the configuration. It should hold passport, ID, credit cards, cash and any travel docs with no problem. It is a bit larger than I expected, however, so that will have an impact on what sort of purse, belt bag, or etc. I use to carry it. My biggest issue with this and ANY RFID blocking wallets/purses/etc. is that I wish the manufacturers would add a sewn in tag or imprint on the product itself that SAYS it's RFID blocking. After time goes buy it gets hard to remember which items in your travel stash are or aren't. I've used a Sharpie to mark this one, but it would be nice if the manufacturer did so professionally.
