Saint Eugenios (Greek: Άγιος Ευγένιος) or Eugene was martyred under Diocletian and a cult devoted to him developed in Trebizond.
His alleged miracles include assisting Trebizond to repel a siege of the city by the Seljuk Turks in 1224.
[4] A monastery dedicated to him existed in Trebizond: Rosenqvist identifies it consisted of a structure on Mount Minthrion with an associated church, and a metochion inside the city walls.
There is evidence that the monastery was in existence at least as early as the ninth century; a typikon composed in 1346 provides details of the monastic community's life.
[5] According to the Orthodox Church in America, his prayer is thus: Your holy martyr Eugene, O Lord, Through his sufferings has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God.For having Your strength, he laid low his adversaries, And shattered the powerless boldness of demons.Through his intercessions, save our souls!
