This Saint Shushanik prayer candle honors the Georgian queen who remained faithful to Christ at great cost. It is a meaningful gift for Georgian and Armenian families and for women of faith.
About Saint Shushanik. Shushanik was the daughter of the Armenian commander Vartan Mamikonian and was married to Varsken, a prince in Kartli, Georgia. When Varsken abandoned the Christian faith, she refused to follow him. She was imprisoned and died in the fifth century. Her story, written soon afterward, is among the oldest works of Georgian literature.
She is honored in the Georgian Orthodox Church as a martyr.
Choose this candle for a Georgian or Armenian family, a woman standing firm in faith, or a lover of the early Caucasian Church.
