2. Juli 2026 · 1 Min. Lesezeit

Am Donnerstag, den 1. Juli 2026, feierte Seine Eminenz, Bischof Maroneia und Komotini Pantелеемон, die Feier der Ehrwürdigen Kleidungskatachrese der Allerheiligen Mutter Gottes in der Heilig-Geist-Kirche Agios Paraskevi Meses, wo das heilige wundertätige Bild "Die Unsterbliche Rose" aus dem 19. Jahrhundert aufbewahrt wird, das unsere Vorfahren aus Ostthrakien mitgebracht haben. In seiner Predigt betonte er, dass die Heilige Mutter Gottes das Allerhöchste Vorbild mütterlicher Liebe, Demut und vollständiger Hingabe an Gott ist. Sie inspiriert jeden Gläubigen als Fürsprecherin und Zufluchtsort, hört unsere Gebete, lindert den Schmerz in Zeiten der Schwierigkeiten und leitet uns sicher zu Christus.

Συμφωνώ πλήρως με την έμφαση στην εικόνα "Ρόδον το Αμάραντον" που φυλάσσεται στον Ναό της Αγίας Παρασκευής Μέσης. Πάντα με ανακουφίζει να θυμάμαι ότι οι πρόγονοί μας τη μετέφεραν από την Ανατολική Θράκη - ένας γνήσιος τρόπος να φυλάσσουν την πίστη τους εκεί όπου την είχαν καρφώσει.

That icon "Rhodon to Amaranthon" from Eastern Thrace... my great-grandmother's family brought it from there when they fled the war in 1922. Do you know if the church still has the old list of families who brought it here?

Margaret Adams

Mark, my great-aunt's family brought an icon from Komotini during the 1922 exodus too. Do you recall if they arrived at the Meses church before the flood of refugees that year, or after?

Peter Johnson

My great-aunt’s side came from the same area and settled near the church in Mesi a few months after the main wave hit in ’22. The icon they carried was smaller, but they always said the “Rodon to Amaranton” copy in the parish gave them courage during those first hard winters. Did your great-aunt ever mention how they kept their own icon safe on the boat?

Thomas Hall

My folks came from a village near Komotini and reached Mesi right in the middle of that 1922 chaos, just before the worst of the winter set in. They always spoke of the Rodon to Amaranton icon as the one thing that kept the families from losing heart while they waited for shelter. Did your great-aunt’s people ever mention which route they took after leaving Thrace?

Paul Davis

My great-aunt did mention the boat trip— they wrapped their small icon in oilcloth and kept it inside a tin biscuit box so the seawater wouldn’t ruin it. Funny enough, that same tin later held her sewing needles in the Mesi house for years. Did your family ever bring any other heirlooms from Eastern Thrace besides the icon?

Emily Walker

My great-aunt never talked much about the boat, but she did say the icon stayed wrapped in her shawl the whole way so it wouldn’t get knocked around. That tin-biscuit-box trick sounds smart. Did your family end up in the Mesi area too, or did they push on somewhere else?
