Glorification of miraculous icon of the Mother of God to be celebrated in Desyatinny Monastery
The Divine Liturgy in the Nativity of the Mother of God Monastery "of the Tithes" begins at 8:00 a.m.
The Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God "of the Tithes" was painted in 1998 in Berkeley, USA, by artist and teacher of iconography Alexander Charon, blessed to paint icons by his spiritual father Igumen Andrew (Mashkov) in 1978.
At first the icon was used as a model for iconography students. In 2000, in the city of San Francisco, a large group of American Christians, studying iconography, moved to the Orthodox Church, forming the Synaxis of the Most Holy Theotokos community.
After the icon arrived in Ukraine, it was kept in the St. John the Forerunner chapel of the St. Elias Church in the Podol neighborhood of Kiev.
In 2006, by the blessing of His Beatitude Metropolitan Vladimir of Kiev, Pascha Liturgy was served on the spot of the first cathedral of the Kievan Rus’ period, the Cathedral of the Most Holy Theotokos "of the Tithes", after which the icon received the same title and was transferred to the newly-formed church which was built on the same site in 2007.
The icon is well-known for many wonders, which may be read about on the site of the monastery.
