Спасибо вам огромное за помощь в приобретении иконы. Я думала сложно будет купить, а нет) есть Вы. В России сложно такое найти. Вы молодцы. Храни вас бог и удачи.

Fr. Gregory

The relic came in. I wanted to cry. My heart was so overwhelmed with joy. On my 25th anniversary the Discalsed Monastery celebrated mass with me in their cloister. The Mother Prioress with the sisters came be a hard bound copy of his writings and his life. I feel it was the hand of Blessed Francisco was moving them. And with this holy relic he is moving me. I will do a more intensive study of him. I will place his relic in the large reliquary I have with John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, and Therese of Liseaux. He will be at home.

Thank you so much for the beautiful icons! I received them today and love them. They are exquisite. Thank you, too, for arranging a payment plan for me, and for putting a wire on the back of each so I can hang them. I can't wait to do so.

Икона - Семистрельная Божией Матери

Russian Icon - Our Lady of Seven Swords (Seven Sorrows Mother of God) in brass revetment cover

The icon of the Seven Sorrows Mother of God (the Melter of Evil Hearts) depicts Theotokos with seven swords in her breast - three in the left, three in the right, and one below. It is based on the prediction of the aged Saint Simeon (Luke 2:35) that a sword would pierce the soul of Mary. This is one of the few Orthodox icons of the Theotokos which do not depict the infant Jesus. The refrain used to address it is "Rejoice, much-sorrowing Mother of God, turn our sorrows into joy and soften the hearts of evil men!" The Feast day is February 2.
