• The Miraculous Icon of our Lord "NOT MADE BY HANDS" in the Church of Sts Boris and Hlib at Kharkiv
• Translation of the “Theotokos BLACHERNITISSA” Icon of the Mother of God (1484) from Mt Athos to Moscow in Russia (1654)
The Blachernae Icon of the Mother of God was discovered at Jerusalem in the fourth century by Empress Eudokia during the time of St Juvenal, Patriarch of Jerusalem, and St. Euthymius the Great. The holy icon was sent to Constantinople, where Empress Pulcheria placed it in the Blacernae Church, where the Venerable Robe of the Mother of God was also preserved. This holy icon is also called the Hodigitria, or “She who leads the way.” It was with this icon that Patriarch Sergius made the rounds of the walls of Constantinople in 626 with Moliebens during the siege of the capital by the Avars. In memory of this and other victories, which were won thanks to the intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos, an annual celebration was established on Saturday of the Fifth Week of the Great Fast to offer Praises to the Most Holy Theotokos (Saturday of the Akathist). At first the celebration took place only at the Blachernae Church in Constantinople. However, in the ninth century, the Feast was included in the Typikon of St. Sava the Sanctified, and in the Studite Rule. Later, it was included in the Lenten Triodion and made universal for all the Orthodox faithful. After the Fall of Constantinople in 1453, the Blachernae Icon was transferred to Mt Athos. In 1654, it was sent to Moscow by the Athonite monks as a gift to Tsar Aleksei Mikhailovich.

Ἡ Ἁγία Κυριακὴ ἡ Μεγαλομάρτυς
女殉道者，圣多米尼卡
在反基督的皇帝戴克里先及他的女婿马克西米安统治时期，在安娜托利亚生活着两个虔诚的且年长的基督徒，他们是多若德奥和欧塞比亚。他们是虔诚的、富有的基督徒，但是他们没有子女。在不间断地祷告之下，上帝赐给他们一个女儿－多米尼卡。从幼年时起，多米尼卡就全身心将自己献于上帝，并不断地克制自己。当长大成人后，多米尼卡面貌美丽、心地善良，许多追求者向她求婚，但是都遭到了她的拒绝，她对这些求婚者说她已经同主基督订了婚，并告诉他们说，她只希望作为一名童女而死去。其中的一个追求者在皇帝戴克里先面前告发了多米尼卡和她的父母他们的基督徒身份。戴克里先下令对多米尼卡的父母进行鞭打，之后又将他们驱逐出梅利泰内城，他们就在那里死去，为了基督忍受了磨难。戴克里先将多米尼卡带到马克西米安前接受审讯。多米尼卡在马克西米安面前表白了自己的基督信仰，马克西米安下令将多米尼卡放在地上对她进行鞭打。之后，皇帝将她交给了指挥官，起初交给了伊拉里雍，在伊拉里雍死后，又交给了阿波罗尼乌斯。这两名刽子手对多米尼卡进行残忍地迫害，但是都是徒劳的。当圣多米尼卡被关在监狱中时，主基督向她显现，使她的伤口完全愈合，并对她说：“多米尼卡，不要害怕刑罚，我的恩典与你同在！”确实，上帝的恩典拯救了这位殉道者脱离火海和这些野兽之手，而这些邪恶的法官以为她已经死了。看到多米尼卡从无数次死亡中被拯救的奇迹之后，许多人都皈依了基督。但是他们都遭到了斩首。多米尼卡对阿波罗尼乌斯说：“你以任何方式都不会使我离弃我的信仰。如果你将我投入到大火中，我有三个年轻人（沙德拉赫、枚沙赫和阿博德－内果）的例证；如果你将我放在野兽面前，我有先知达尼伊尔的例证；如果你将我投入大海中，我有先知约纳的例证；如果你将我放在刀剑之下，我会想起荣耀的先驱（施浸约安）；生命对于我来说就是为了基督而死。”之后，阿波罗尼乌斯下令将多米尼卡斩首。多米尼卡双膝跪倒，两手举向天空向上帝祷告，祈求上帝能够怜悯并拯救所有纪念她的人，并使她的灵魂以及父母的灵魂得以安息。在祷告完毕后，在刀剑落下之前她将灵魂交在上帝之手。多米尼卡荣耀殉道，得到了那永恒的喜乐。她殉道的时间是公元289年，地点是尼科美底亚。
