The icon of Our Lady of Unexpected Joy arrived a couple hours ago, and I am delighted with it; beautiful workmanship and beautiful story that I very much find compelling. Thank you...it has a good home here with a candle burning in front of it. Be safe and be well.

Small reliquary theca with relic of St. Nicephorus I, Patriarch of Constantinople

Small oval glass-fronted silver reliquary theca housing a relic of St. Nicephorus I, Patriarch of Constantinople. The relic is affixed to a silk ground decorated with silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a manuscript cedula label as S. Niceph P. (Saint Nicephorus, Patriarch). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a perfectly-preserved seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of Monsignor Costantino Patrizi Naro (†1876), Dean of the College of Cardinals and the Vicar General of the Roman Curia (1841-1876).

Saint Nicephorus I (†828) was a Byzantine patriarch of Constantinople from 806 to 815. He is venerated in the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. His Feast day is commemorated on 13 March and 2 June.
