🌸 **With Hearts Full of Gratitude for Our Feast Day Celebration** 🌸
With great joy and thanksgiving, we look back on the blessed celebration of our Annual Feast Day, honoring the Leavetaking of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos, the Protectress and Consolation of our monastery.
We were especially blessed by the presence of His Grace Bishop Athenagoras of Patara, who presided over the sacred services of Great Vespers, Matins and the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy, together with Abbot Paisios of Saint Anthony’s Monastery and Abbot Dositheos of Holy Archangels Monastery, as well as the priests and clergy who joined us throughout these blessed days. We are deeply grateful to them, as their presence and prayers added to the joy of our celebration.
Our heartfelt gratitude also goes to all who travelled from near and far to celebrate with us. Your presence, prayers, love, and support are a beautiful encouragement to our sisterhood and to the life of our monastery.
May the Most Holy Theotokos, our Mother and Consolation, continue to protect our monastery, our families, our benefactors, and all who seek her intercession.
🌿 “In giving birth you preserved your virginity; in your Dormition you did not forsake the world, O Theotokos.”
Thank you for celebrating this beautiful feast with us. May the blessings of the Mother of God remain with you always.
