God bless you for the sermon. I especially remembered how the bishop said that the Georgian icon was always a "quiet defender" in times of trouble, and not just an image. We also have a small copy of such an icon at home, my wife puts it next to the children's bed. Have you heard that somewhere in Vinnytsia this particular icon is especially revered?

God bless you for your sermon. At my home, too, a small Georgian icon stands on a shelf in the kitchen, and I always remember it when the children are sick—though, like a quiet protector. But in Vinnitsa, Petro, I haven’t heard that they especially honor him somewhere, maybe in some home church.

God bless you for your sermon. I also have a small copy of the Georgian icon at home on a shelf in my bedroom, and it’s true that when my sister or I are sick, you involuntarily look at it and ask for protection. But I haven’t heard anything about Vinnitsa, maybe one of us knows?

Yes, that little icon in the room always ends up being the first one we look at when something hurts, right? The same thing happens to me with the one I have on my nightstand. As for Vinnitsa, I think it is the place where the original appeared in the 17th century, but I don't know much else; If someone in the group has the exact information, let them tell it.
