30 Photos From the Litany of St. Nicholas of Velikoretsky


On Tuesday 3 June 2013 began the annual 800 kilometer litany/procession with the wonderworking icon of St. Nicholas in Velikoretskoye, Russia. This annual event has been taking place for more than 600 years, though in 1930 it was outlawed by Soviet authorities. The original icon itself was lost with the destruction of Vyatkian Trinity Cathedral in 1935, but in 1989 the annual litany resumed with an accurate copy of the original icon. It is estimated that 30,000 people are participating.

Support the Mystagogy Resource Center

For more than fifteen years, the Mystagogy Resource Center has been a labor of love dedicated to making the riches of the Orthodox Christian tradition freely available to people throughout the world.

Thousands of articles, translations, lives of saints, theological reflections, historical resources, and daily materials have been published across this ministry’s websites, all offered free of charge for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Orthodox faith.

This is a one-man ministry that requires countless hours of research, translation, writing, editing, and maintenance each day.

If this work has spiritually benefited, educated, encouraged, or inspired you in any way, I humbly ask you to consider supporting this ministry financially.

Generous annual and monthly benefactors make possible the continuation and expansion of this work for the future, for without such support this ministry cannot exist.

Every contribution, whether large or small, truly makes a difference and is deeply appreciated. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and prayers.
