Saint Nina Saint Nina or Nino from Cappadocia, from pious parents dedicated to God, grew up with Gerontissa Niophora. During the study of the Gospel, she was born with the desire to find the earthly purple of the Son of God and she begged the Virgin to claim her to go to the country of the Iberians, to venerate the tunic. Our Lady offered her a Cross made of vines and asked her to preach the word of God, where she did so around the 3rd century. A.D. in Georgia. In the place where Christ's tunic had been deposited, he built the Temple of the Holy Pillar.
