Life

Holy New Martyr John Nannos was a young martyr born in 1785 and died in 1802, in the time of Ottoman rule. The sources at hand do not preserve details of the circumstances of his martyrdom.

The Church counts him among the new martyrs, those who confessed Christ in death after the fall of Constantinople, in the years of Turkish rule.
