This year, the feast of the Theotokos of the Life-giving Spring (celebrated on the Friday after Pascha) coincided with April 23, the feast of Saint George. Father Michael celebrated the Liturgy in the chapel of Saint George.

A favourite icon of Saint George on the iconostasion
He holds a protecting arm around a boy whom he rescued from captivity
ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ ΑΝΕΣΤΗ. Τhank you very much Father Justin. I like the perfect art of yοur photographs, and I ask your prayers.
Great icon Fr. Justin!! In Stefani village of Corinth at the monastery of St. Demetrius, they have a respective rare miraculous icon of St. Demetrius (carrying on the back of his horse – flying above the sea back to Greece – a kidnapped monk being enslaved to carry rocks in the north coasts of Africa).
That is a beautiful icon. Even the filigree of the lampada bears the image of St. George slaying the dragon.
