Hymn to Saint Nicholas: For those of us who find ourselves amid misfortunes as we journey by land or sail the seas, for those of us who are nearby or far removed, thou art a great and fervent advocate, an exceeding merciful and mighty intercessor, O Holy Nicholas, sacred preacher of Christ. Wherefore, assembling we cry: Entreat the Lord that we may be delivered from every evil circumstance.
Icon Visitation The miraculous, myrrh-streaming "Softening of Evil Hearts" Icon of the Mother of God visited our Holy Temple on Wednesday, March 22/April 4, 2012 in the evening. Before the service began, Father Stephanos sincerely thanked Sergey Fomin for accompanying the sacred Icon, whose arrival was to the great joy of the parishioners. Mr. Fomin shared an extremely informative, devout history of the wonderworking "Softening of Evil Hearts" Icon with us much-appreciative faithful. We then celebrated a Moleben with Akathist to the most-holy Theotokos the "Softener of Evil Hearts" served by Father Stephanos and Hieromonk Cyprian Alexandrou (of Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville) before the myrrh-streaming Icon, and we and all the pilgrims were anointed with fragrant myrrh from the wonderworking Icon. Following the anointing, a reception was held for all in the parish hall. For more information, please click the "Softening of Evil Hearts" Icon tab to the left.
