St Emmelia

St EmmeliaWritten by Deacon Paul Drozdowski of Holy Trinity Monastery, this icon of St. Emmelia of Caesaria the holy mother whose household produced three bishops and a great abbess renders her with the quiet authority of one who shaped Orthodoxy's future through the holiness of her home. She is a model for Christian parents who seek to raise their children in the fear and love of God. An Orthodox mounted icon from Damascene Gallery.

The Old Believer tradition's deep fidelity to pre-Nikonian canonical forms gives this rendering of the most beloved Russian icon a particular historical gravity
