Saint Ephraim, at the age of 14, in order to avoid Islamization, joined the thriving holy monastery of  Stavropigiani of The Dormition of the most holy Theotokos, in Attica. A few years later, Turks intruded violently into the Monastery and tortured Ephraim. Ephraim of Nea Makri testified on May 5, 1426, and this is when his memory is celebrated.
