Theotokos Pantanassa
The Story Behind This Icon:
Theotokos Pantanassa is one of many of Mount Athos' miraculous icons. The first miracle was witnessed when a young man visiting from Cyprus entered the church: a glowing light and an invisible power coming from the icon pushed him down to the ground. The young man later confessed that he was not a believer and that he used to participate in rituals of black magic. He repented and became an Orthodox Christian. The icon is known for its many miracles. There are countless testimonies of faithful who have been healed from various diseases, even cancer.

Beautiful, Great Quality, Fast shipping!
I purchased one of these icons last week and I could not be happier! The icon arrived the next day in excellent condition and the pictures really do not do it justice! The attention to detail, the colors and the gold background are really spectacular. I'll definitely be coming back to buy another one!
