Saints Evnuvios, Paisios and Averikios (Macedonian: Свети преподобномаченици Евнувиј, Пајсиј и Аверикиј) were Eastern Orthodox monks from the town of Kičevo, today in North Macedonia, who suffered martyrdom in the Immaculate Mother of God Monastery while protecting the Orthodox faith from the Ottoman army. They are the first saints to be canonised by the newly-autocephalous Macedonian Orthodox Church; the canonisation took place in the monastery where they died on 2 August 2012.
