Saint John was a monk known for his deep faith and dedication to prayer at Prislop Monastery. He lived a life of simplicity and devotion. One day, while praying in the nearby forest, he was attacked by bandits seeking treasure they believed he had hidden. Despite their torture, John refused to renounce his faith or reveal any riches, for he had none. In their rage, the bandits killed him and hid his body. Years later, through a divine revelation to a local shepherd, his relics were discovered incorrupt and emitting a sweet fragrance, a testament to his holiness.
