==Life==
In 1093, however, raids on the island by Emir Dzaha forced Fr. Christodoulos and the [[monk]]s to flee to the island of Euboia where Fr. Christodoulos died on March 16, 1093. The monks did return to Patmos a few years later, having regained the monastery, and brought with them his incorrupt [[relics]].
