The story of a Greek Orthodox monk who established 19 monasteries in North America is an epic of devotion to his faith and determination to achieve what others would find impossible. Elder Ephraim, also known as Ioannis Moraitis, was the spiritual head of the Greek Orthodox St. Anthony’s Monastery in Arizona. Full story: https://tinyurl.com/bdcwwum5

Which icons should we venerate first when entering an Orthodox church?

After lighting a candle, the faithful traditionally venerate the icons in the narthex in a reverent order: Christ, the Most Holy Theotokos, the icon of the feast day, the church’s patron saint, and then the remaining icons according to local custom.

Make the Sign of the Cross, offer a small metanoia if able, and approach each holy icon with humility, prayer, and love.

“The honor paid to the image passes to the prototype.”
St. Basil the Great
