The Reverend Father Habeeb Kheshy (1894-1948) was the son of the hieromartyr Nicholas Kheshy and a parish priest of the Archdiocese of Damascus , the Patriarchal see of the Church of Antioch . He was murdered by a group of Muslim smugglers, who tortured and then killed him for his Christian faith, on July 16 , 1948.
Though he has not yet been canonized by the Church of Antioch , a popular veneration of him exists among the faithful of the Archdioceses of Damascus and Haurun , where he is called "the New Hieromartyr Habeeb."
Tropar
Having been a participant of the character and a successor of the apostles on the throne, thou, O God-inspired one, didst find work in coming into visions; whilst therefore rightly dividing the word of truth, for the sake of the faith didst thou suffer even unto the shedding of thy blood. O hieromartyr Habeeb, intercede before Christ the God that our souls may be saved.
Kondak
Having lived piously among hierarchs and having gone through the path of martyrdom, thou, O God-wise one, hast extinguished the sacrifices of idols and wast a protector unto thy flock. Wherefore, in honouring thee, in our hearts we cry out unto thee: Do ever deliver us from dangers through thine intercessions, O Habeeb, our father.
