Although the village of Oikos is relatively small both in terms of land expanse and population, it is, however, a community which presents a significant ecclesiastical heritage which will be presented through a text written by a resident of the Community, Eirini Charalambous:
Agios Lazaros Holy Water
The Holy Water of Agios Lazaros is found at a location near the village, while the spring of the Saint, also located nearby and which supplies the village with water, does not seem to produce as much water as it used to before the installation of a meter. Also found at the same location are ruins of the church of Agios Lazaros, as well as the spring of the Saint salvaged today. Unfortunately, it was not possible to build a new church in honour of the Saint up until today, but efforts are being made towards achieving this goal.
