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!

April 23, 2014

On the eve of the feast of Saint George there was revived an old custom, at the initiative of the cultural association of Lefkakia - the procession of the Sacred Icon of Saint George with horses. The procession began from the church where Vespers was celebrated, and then a cavalry received the icon from the Priest and paraded it through the village. Every year many people follow and participate in the procession of the icon.
