How Deep Is The Hyman?
THYRSE St., Bishop Karpasia, hermit and miracle worker
Near the village of Gialousa Karpasia Peninsula, north-east to the seaside, lies the small church of Saint Thyrse. According to local tradition, St. thyrsus which is also commonly known as St. Therissos, lived as an ascetic in this place. This holy bishop named Karpasia, resigned his episcopal chair preferring to live an ascetic life, and went to where his church is today. Having found a cave, he settled there.
Nearby was a source he used to drink. but the rate thereof decreased considerably during the summer months. For this reason, the Holy then decided to dig the water source to enlarge. Since the Dormition of the Holy, this water is considered holy water.
There remains no authentic biography of the saint. Some believe he was of Cypriot origin and the Bishop of Karpasia, while others believe it was one of the foreign bishops who were in the group of "three hundred" Christian saints who came from Alemanni Palestine to Cyprus and ascetics lived in various parts of the island. However, all these issues are not important. What is important is how he lived his life, his selflessness, his poverty, his poverty, his aversion for wealth and the pleasures of fraudulent vanity of this world. What is important is his humility and his hope and faith in God alone, but also the holiness and glory he received from Him.
Saint Thyrse has done many miracles in his church, he was particularly Heal warts of the hands and feet and many people benefited, through the holy water with which they washed. There is a custom that when someone puts the holy water of the Holy on his body, he must go below the church to the sea and wash in salt water because it is the only way the Holy lets her holy water to take effect. If someone brings her holy water to a sick person, he gets no miracle. The reason may be that believers are thus encouraged to visit the Church of the Holy.
The church of Saint Thyrse is currently occupied by the Turkish army. Before 1974 in the village of Gialousa, there was a huge celebration for the feast of the saint.
Saint Thyrse memory is celebrated on 23 July.
