Μνήμη Ἁγίας Σκέπης τῆς Ὑπεραγίας Θεοτόκου ἐν Βλαχερνῷ
This is a great feast-day in Ukraine and commemorates several events during which the Mother of God appeared over embattled cities to save them with her Mantle of Protection (e.g. Pochaiv in 1675).
• TEREBOVLANSKA Icon of the Mother of God // 1ST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER //
• Synaxis of the Most Holy Theotokos the VOURLIOTISSA // 1ST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER //
According to the tradition of Asia Minor, the Sacred Icon was found by a shepherd. He would take his goats to a field where there were rushes and reeds (vourla), for which the village of Vourla was named after. At one point a goat cut off from the herd and when it returned the shepherd noticed it had a wet beard. The next day the shepherd returned to the field without his goats to find the place with the water in order to open it so that his animals could drink. While searching and unable to find the source he discovered the icon of the Panagia. On the spot of the discovery a small church was built and next to it a larger church in which the icon was kept. In 1922 after August 15th, the Turks entered Vourla and destroyed it. They desecrated, plundered and then burned the church. It is unknown how and by whom the icon arrived in New Philadelphia, a northern suburb of Athens. The icon of the Panagia was damaged by another fire which occurred on the eve of the invasion of the Turks into Cyprus and on the anniversary of the consecration of the church. The silver covering was placed in Philadelphia out of gratitude towards the Panagia by a woman of Vourla, who received a considerable amount from the exchangeable fund after the disaster. It has performed many miracles and it attracts Christians both from Asia Minor and not. By decision of the Sacred Cathedral of the Dormition of the Theotokos in New Philadelphia, where the sacred icon is kept, and the Sacred Metropolis of New Ionia and Philadelphia, a purely refugee Metropolis, the official celebration of the icon was appointed for the first Sunday in October each year.

Synaxis of All Saints of CYPRUS // 1ST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER //
Cyprus is known as the "Island of Saints". From apostolic times till our present day we know of 240 Saints from Cyprus. Many many more are unknown to us. There are also many which are only known to the Cypriot people but are not annually commemorated. For this reason, on the first Sunday of October is commemorated all the Saints of the island of Cyprus, both known and unknown. In fact, Archbishop Makarios III counted 369 Saints of Cyprus up until St. Philoumenos who was martyred in 1979.

• PIATON (Piato, Piat) (286) martyred in Tournai under Maximian
• Translaton of Relics of Sainted REMIGIUS 瑞弥吉 Bishop of Reims (533) the Apostle of the Franks
During the seventy-four years he was bishop he was the most influential prelate in Gaul, the culminating event of his life being the baptism of Clovis, King of the Franks, in 496. Clovis had married the noble Christian maiden known to us as St Clotilda, and these three acting concertedly gained virtually the entire nation to the Christian religion. The army was baptized at the same time as Clovis, by St Remi and his assistants. The Saint threw down the altars of the idols, built churches, and appointed bishops. He silenced the Arians and presided at the First Council of Orleans. Eventually he converted so many that he left France a Christian kingdom; its king was also the first crowned son of the Church, and at that time the only one. Ever since St Remi, Christian France has rejoiced in its title of eldest daughter of the Church.
