Saint Stephen, the first martyr of the Christian faith, is depicted in solemn reverence, cradling the stones that marked his sacrifice. Clad in red vestments symbolizing martyrdom, he holds the palm of victory, a traditional emblem of those who gave their lives for the Gospel. His head bowed in peace reflects both humility and courage. As the patron saint of deacons and stonemasons, Stephen’s legacy continues to inspire service and steadfastness in the face of persecution.
