Nestled within the courtyard of Agios Rafael in Perachori lies a humble yet significant chapel dedicated to Saint John the Theologian.

This small sanctuary, celebrating the saint’s Assumption on September 26th, holds a unique place in the religious and historical tapestry of Ithaca.

The story of the chapel is deeply intertwined with the life and legacy of Saint John the Theologian. According to Christian tradition, this beloved disciple of Jesus Christ lived a long and dedicated life, preaching the word of God until his peaceful passing at the age of 105. The chapel serves as a testament to his enduring influence and the devotion of the Ithacan community.

Despite its modest size, the chapel of Saint John the Theologian offers a space for quiet contemplation and prayer. Its presence within the larger Agios Rafael complex creates a sense of connection and continuity, reminding visitors of the island’s rich religious heritage.
