Wooden Icon of Saint Pope Leo I the Great Defender of Rome & Christian Faith
🕊️ Exquisite Orthodox Icon of Saint Leo the Great
This beautifully crafted wooden icon honors Saint Leo the Great (Pope Leo I, 440–461 AD)—one of the most influential Church Fathers and a fearless defender of Christian orthodoxy. A pivotal figure in early Christianity, he shaped theological doctrine and saved Rome from destruction through his wisdom and faith.
✝️ The Legacy of Saint Leo the Great

Protector of Rome: Persuaded Attila the Hun (452 AD) and Genseric the Vandal (455 AD) to spare the city from devastation.
Theological Brilliance: Left 100+ sermons and 140 letters—cornerstones of Christian teaching.
Venerated Relics: Rest in St. Peter’s Basilica (Vatican) in a chapel bearing his name.
