Item description from the seller
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit!
On this Sunday we celebrate the memory of the Iveron icon of the Mother of God, or more exactly, the memory of the triumphal translation from the Holy Mount of Athos to Moscow in 1648 of a copy of the Iveron icon.
According to tradition, in the ninth century this icon floated in a miraculous way on the sea to the Holy Mountain of Athos. The monks of the Georgian Iveron Monastery on Athos saw the icon in the sea, upheld upon a fiery pillar. Having received instructions in a dream from the Mother of God, St. Gabriel the Hagiorite walked upon the water and brought the icon to the Iveron Monastery.
