Sainthood through martyrdom:

Lyubov Rodionov holding two portraits of her son Yevgeny — a primary school photograph and an unauthorized icon. Mrs. Rodionov says Muslim rebels killed him because he refused to renounce his religion.

Thanks Des, for the pics. What a lovely little boy.

How appropriate for him to be holding a cross as an adult in the saintly icon.
