At the end of the sixteenth century, the holy relics were in danger from the occupying Muslim Turks. They receive bodily and spiritual healing through his prayers and fragrant miracle-working relics. By the prayers of our blessed Father Peter of Korisha, may the Lord have mercy upon us and save us, because He loves mankind. As a desert dweller, an angel in body and a miracle worker, thou hast revealed thyself O our God-bearing father Peter. Through fasting, vigils and prayer, thou hast received heavenly gifts to heal the needy and those who come to thee with faith.
Glory be to the One who crowned thee.
Glory be to the One who strengthened thee. Glory be to the One who through thee accomplishes healings. Having fled from the company of men, thou didst dwell in stony caves and clefts. Thou wast filled with divine desire and love for thy Lord O Peter, from Whom thou didst receive the crown. Pray without ceasing that our souls may be saved.
