Today the faithful celebrate the feast with joy
illumined by your coming, O Mother of God.
Beholding your pure image we fervently cry to you:
"Encompass us beneath the precious veil of your protection;
deliver us from every form of evil by entreating Christ,
your Son and our God that He may save our souls."
Toparion Tone 4

Holy Theotokos, pray to God for us.
Dear Madam,
I have just descovered your blogs and the wonderful life of your family. I thank God for having let me find out about all of you ! I am from Romania, Europe, a country where people are Orthodox Christian since the Apostle Andrew christened them in Ist century, but I am full of joy that out there in far America there is a family who lives upon the rules of Orthodoxy given by Christ Himself. I just adore your family, the life you lead, Mrs. Susan Sophia ! I pray God to give all of you His love in every minute of your lives !
With all my admiration and love,
Cristina
