  amen! Biography: George (Gurgis/Jurjis) was born in Cappadocia\, East Asi
 a Minor in c. A. D. 283. His parents were of royal origin as describedby M
 eta Frastres (Moothedan\, 2001). His Father is thought to be an army chief
  of Emperor Diocletian. George was also a high-ranking military officer in
  the army of Diocletian.There are several legendary and historical descrip
 tions about St. George and it is difficult to distinguish between the two.
  However\, most of the books refer to an incident which is described here.
  One day George was riding a horse in the province of Lybiain North Africa
 . He came upon a city named Sylene. Near the city was a marsh\, in which l
 ived a dragon. The people had attempted to kill it but were poisoned by th
 e creature’s fetid breath. To placate the dragon\, they offered it two s
 heep a day\, but when they began to exhaust their supply of sheep\, they w
 ere forced to substitute a human each day instead\, casting lot to choose 
 the victim. At the time of George’s arrival\, the lot had just fallen to
  the King’s daughter Andromeda (Sophia?). No one volunteered to take her
  place\, so she was dressed in bridal finery and sent to meet the dragon. 
 Riding upon this scene on a (green) horse George attacked the dragon and s
 peared it with his lance. He then fastened the princess’s girdle around 
 its neck\, and the girl led the dragon into the city. The people were frig
 htened and started to run away\, but  George told them not to be afraid 
 – that if they would believe in Jesus Christ and be baptized\, he would 
 slay the dragon.The King and the people agreed. George killed the dragon\,
  and it was carried away on four ox carts (White\, 1991). George accepted 
 no reward for his service\, but he asked the King to build churches\, hono
 ur Priests\, and to be compassionate towards the poor.George was martyred 
 duing the persecution of Diocletian at Nicomedia in the beginning of the 4
 th century.The persecution lasted for about seven years. During that perio
 d about seventy Kings were associated with Diocletian and historians menti
 on different Kings in their account of the persecution.The persecution was
  as a result of George’s refusal to worship Appalon and Hoclis\, the pag
 an Gods. George performed several miracles. Diocletian’s wife Alexandria
  and his daughter Valeria believed in Jesus Christ. This resulted in the b
 eheading of Alexandria on April 8 at Diospolis in Palestine (now\, Lod\, I
 srael). St. George was beheaded at the same place on 23 April (Britannica\
 , 2001\; Encarta\, 2001).The writings of two Syrian churches\, which date 
 back to A.D.494\, suggest that George was martyred at Lydha (now\, Lod\, I
 srael).There were churches in the name of St. George during the time of Co
 nstantine\, the Great\, at Nicomedia\, Ludia\, and Thessalonica.-Biography
