I no longer make icon prints to sell online or at church festivals and will not be doing that in the future. That being said, I still have a number of rubber made containers filled with icon prints that were made in the past. If I were to sell boxes of assorted prints at a discount, would that be something anyone is interested in? The prints are high-resolution photos taken by myself, which are heat laminated and mounted on three-quarters mdf. Let me know if that is something that would interest you. #icon #iconographer #ikon #orthodoxiconchristian #orthodoxchruch #easternorthodoxchristian #easternorthdox #byzantine #byzantineiconography #iconography

Today we are celebrating the Feast of Stephen, my namesake and the first martyr of the Church. As I was just reading his life, I learned that the English word “martyr” is actually derived from the Greek word for “witness”. In Acts, one can find his well-reasoned speech in defense of the budding faith in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Sadly, the audience reacted with anger and stoned him on the spot. Stephen died praying for his persecutors, his final act bearing witness for God’s love. A more powerful witness than his speech. Nowadays, as violent mobs (thankfully most of them are online) are once again gathering to suppress truth everywhere, let’s remind ourselves that we are called to not only courage to witness Truth not only with our speech but also with our deeds. #orthodoxy #christianity #martyrs #saints #saintstephen #deacon #jesuschristisgod #jesuschrist #god #godfirst #easternorthodoxchristian #truth #witness
Merry Christmas from across the schism to those who celebrate! I’m Eastern Orthodox, so I still have two weeks left to go.

God bless you, and a Very Merry Christmas from Tom and I! All glory to Jesus Christ 🌹

On the feast of st Herman of Alaska, former parishioner Caleb Lewis became Priest Caleb by the hands of Metropolitan Tikhon. Some parishioners were able to visit St. Tikhon's to witness the joyous occasion. Axios! Later a meet up of former Holy Crossers (the Thompsons and the Lewis's, who are also at seminary right now) and current Holy Crossers (Ryan Miller and the Dukes) occurred to the joy of everyone. Axios and many years Father Caleb! #axios #orthodoxy #orthodox #orthodoxchristian #sacramentochurch #sacramento #orthodoxchurchofamerica #orthodoxchurchinamerica #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian #priest #metropolitan #metropolitantikhon #sttikhonsseminary
The Holy Cross Carolers took to the road and brought joy and good cheer to all who were near. We sang at several group homes, where we also distributed gifts for the residents as well. Then we headed to some parishioners who aren't able to attend Holy Cross right now. It was a special joy to see and carol for Father David, who told us his favorite carol was all of them. #christmascarols #caroling #holycrosscarolers #orthodoxy #orthodox #orthodoxchristian #sacramentochurch #sacramento #orthodoxchurchofamerica #orthodoxchurchinamerica #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian
The Nativity fast calls for a backlog of posts! At the beginning of December, we had our Youth Day of Service, where the youth put together bags for the homeless and candy bags for the food closet. The day would not be complete without crafts and games. It was a great time.

You can have your crystals, your “the universe brought this togethers,” your periodic & temporary relief or joy. I get it…but I will not sit and watch passively, nod my head yes when my heart and spirit know it’s not true. I will not sit there in agreement to something I don’t believe in. I’m not judging you either. I’ve seen the other side, the one without God, and it isn’t pretty. It’s miserable. I love God and I love Jesus with all of me, and I don’t care what you think ⚡️❤️🔥⚡️ I know that only He is the Truth and THE Way 🙌🏼 I know that no matter what circumstance I live through, I don’t have to lose that joy and peace that only comes from Him and dwells within me♥️ Be free 🕊️ Set your soul free and choose to walk with God. It’s simpler than you think & I promise you won’t regret it 🫶🏼✨ Background via @pinterest #wordsbyyanna #wbypoetry #wbyquotes #god #jesus #lifestyle #bethelight #helpothers #prayforothers #greekorthodoxchristian #easternorthodoxchristian #orthodoxchristian #christian #goodvibes #peace #contentment #stopcaringwhatotherpeoplethink

I feel so blessed to be working for the rest of the academic year on the new video series for @ancientfaithkids and the workbooks to go with it. However, I will also try to keep adding new free lesson plans to the website when I am able. We just uploaded a new addition to the Holy Mysteries series we had started last year: Holy Unction. It is not a resource for the current season, but you can keep it in mind for later - or you can start a teaching unit on the Mysteries now! (we currently have material for an intro lesson to the Mysteries, Baptism, Chrismation, Confession, Communion, and Unction - hoping to complete the series in the next few months). As the Nativity Fast is coming up, don't forget to explore our page on fasting, our first Ancient Faith video on fasting, and the accompanying workbook, available at the Ancient Faith Store and the @draw.near.designs Marketplace. Finally, our seasonal material includes a fabric set and free lesson plan on the Entrance of the Theotokos, an Orthodox-focused Jesse Tree craft kit, and lesson resources about the Old Testament connections to the Incarnation. 👉 All links in bio 👈 A blessed and fruitful Nativity Fast to all! 🙏 . . . . . #orthodoxedu #orthodoxeducation #orthodoxyinamerica #greekorthodoxchurch #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian #orthodoxkids

Maybe some of you have been wondering why Orthodox Pebbles has entirely disappeared from social media for a long while.... Well, it is because I have been spending the past few months working and working on an exciting new collaboration with Ancient Faith Kids! Orthodox Pebbles video series launching on @ancientfaithkids in October, accompanied by a series of hands-on creative workbooks along the lines of the other Orthodox Pebbles creations. The missions of Ancient Faith Kids and Orthodox Pebbles overlap in so many ways--to inspire and edify young children in the Orthodox Christian Faith. We hope you enjoy! Dear friends, please pray for me as I am tackling this so exciting but also quite overwhelming work. 🙏 I sincerely hope it will help enrich the religious education experience for both educators and learners. . . . . . #orthodoxedu #orthodoxeducation #orthodoxyinamerica #greekorthodoxchurch #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian #orthodoxkids
“I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

What is the Orthodox Christian Church? We are: • The Body of Christ not just a body of Christians • Orthodox but not Jewish • Catholic but not Latin • Evangelical but not Protestant • A continuous Pentecost but not Pentecostal • Not denominational but pre-denominational • The Orthodox Christian Church has believed, taught, preserved, defended, and died for the faith of Jesus Christ and the Apostles since the day of Pentecost over 2,000 years ago. • The Orthodox Church offers you the authentic Tradition maintained without innovation since Apostolic times, which fulfills life on a daily basis, not just on Sunday. We invite you to worship with us at Holy Trinity Orthodox Church, 369 Green Avenue, East Meadow. The parish, founded in 1924, is the first Orthodox Christian parish in the Nassau/Suffolk area and centrally located in mid-island East Meadow. Holy Trinity is a diverse community of Orthodox Christians who come from all walks of life and ethnicities, gathering in the oneness of Faith to worship God in the fullness of the Church’s liturgical life and fellowship. The parish also has a strong commitment to serving others through various charities. We welcome all people seeking a community rooted in the oldest Christian Church with an emphasis on sacraments, prayer, fasting, mystery, Holy Scripture, and Holy Tradition. All services are conducted in English. The Divine Liturgy (Eucharist) is celebrated every Sunday and feast day at 9:30 AM. Coffee hour follows the Divine Liturgy every Sunday. Vespers (evening prayer) are served every Saturday and on the eve of feast days at 6 PM. Services are also streamed on https://www.facebook.com/htocem. The full liturgical schedule can be found on the parish website’s calendar at www.htocem.org.

"The dark sayings and riddles of the prophets, foreshadowed Thine incarnation from a virgin, O Christ. Even the lightening of Thy brightness which was to come as a light to enlighten the gentiles; and the deep utters its voice to thee in joy: glory to Thy power, o Thou who lovest mankind."- 1st cannon, vigil of the Dormition of the Mother of God. Blessed feast and save travels to those going to Holy Assumption Monastery @calistogaorthodox today for their alter feast! #dormition #assumption #feastday #lastfastoftheyear #orthodoxy #orthodox #orthodoxchristian #sacramentochurch #sacramento #orthodoxchurchofamerica #orthodoxchurchinamerica #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian #summerpascha
We have set up an easy way to donate/tithe online for our parish! Check out this QR code, or the link in our bio, and it will take you directly to our donation page. We have moved into our new space and it has come with hidden costs and urgent needs. Any donations would be greatly appreciated, but above all we ask for your prayers for the parish as we continue to serve the Lord through St. Martin of Tours Orthodox Mission Church! #orthodox #easternorthodox #easternorthodoxy #easternorthodoxchurch #easternorthodoxchristian #easternorthodoxchristianity #orthodoxfaith #orthodoxchurch #orthodoxchristian #orthodoxchristianity
Creating Orthodox spaces for you and your expected little one are so important! I was gifted these beautiful hand-painted prints from @emiliaspost and this swaddle blanket from @st_tabithas_workshop from friends at my church! The blanket is made out of beautiful designed fabric and very breathable. These Orthodox affirmation card and the print (from the Akathist to the Mother of God for Children) are lovely to reflect on before and after having your baby! What Orthodox items do you love to use to create beautiful spaces for you and baby? #orthodoxgifts #orthodoxchristian #orthodoxblog #orthodoxparenting #christianmother #birthaffirmationcards #nursingnook #orthodoxchurch #orthodoxwomen #easternorthodoxchristian #traditionalmotherhood
July always starts off with a bang, with St John of Shanghai's feast day followed by the 4th. Happy 4th of July! Our annual pilgrimage to Fort Ross for liturgy was a success with a large number of parishioners this year. Don't forget, the church school's end of year pool party this Saturday, followed by the men's group (and maybe the women's group) and vespers. Hope to see you!
