Lord God of Saint George, remember the donor.

"The monastery was dedicated to St George and it is considered to be the γεροκόμειον (old people's home) built by Athenais-Eudokia at the entrance to Jerusalem and dedicated to St George. It was extensively damaged in 614, but was soon rebuilt and continued to function through the Ummayad period."
