This narrative describes a transformative encounter between a Saracen leader, Amerumnes, and a Christian priest, set against the backdrop of a miraculous event in a church dedicated to Saint George. After witnessing the death of camels in the church and an extraordinary Divine Liturgy, Amerumnes is moved to convert to Christianity. He seeks baptism but faces opposition from his family. The story culminates in the martyrdom of Pachomius, a monk who bravely preaches the Christian faith despite severe persecution, ultimately inspiring others to believe.
