Our Father among the saints, Chrysostomos of Smyrna (birth name Kalafatis, in Greek Καλαφάτης, 1867-1922), was a Metropolitan of the Greek Orthodox population of Smyrna (now Izmir in Turkey) between 1910 and 1914 and again from 1919 to his death in 1922. He was notable for his charity work and for having been deeply involved in the politics of his day. He was lynched and brutally murdered by a Turkish mob incited by Nurettin Pasha in Smyrna on September 9 1922 soon after the Turkish army regained control of the city at the end of the Greco-Turkish War (1919-1922) and sent the Greek population into exile. He is also known to be the founder of the sports club Panionios. His feast day is celebrated on August 27.
