Saint Stephen Protomartyr & Archdeacon
St. Stephen was the first of the seven deacons selected by the Apostles. Deacons were to minister to the material needs of the community so he is written with his hand covered holding a church. He is shown in icons with the incenser - as the deacon incences the Church and the people, the Body of Christ.
