Many many thanks to all those who contributed to match a generous $3000 donation from an anonymous donor. The goal was attained this past weekend. It is because of people like you that the Mystagogy Resource Center can continue to offer unique material to all for free on a daily basis that I hope people find beneficial. For those who still wish to contribute, please do so, with much gratitude in return. God bless you all!

Synaxis of All Saints of Chios


On the first Sunday of September, the Holy Church celebrates the feast of All Saints associated with the island of Chios. This includes those who were born there, who lived there, who visited there, and who reposed or were martyred there.

The holy icon of the Synaxis of All Saints of Chios was first made at the Holy Monastery of the Annunciation of the Theotokos in Oinousses and is today found in the Holy Church of Saint George in Frourio.
