The Virgin, Virgo, Rejoice. Orthodox calendar for 2020 with reading for every day

The Orthodox Church venerates the Virgin Mary, the Virgin, above all saints, above the angels. The first big holiday of the church year is the Christmas of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the latter is her Assumption. In this calendar, we will follow the events of the earthly life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, touch the places associated with the name of the Most Holy-we will get acquainted with the laurels dedicated to her Assumption: Kiev-Pechersk, Pochaev and Svyatogorskaya. You will learn the history of icons, especially revered on the Holy Mount Athos, and about the miraculous Vladimir image of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who has repeatedly saved the Russian land from troubles, with which the whole history of our state is inextricably linked.
In the calendar you will find the answers of priests to questions related to the Most Holy, the sermons and teachings of the Holy Fathers and Teachers of the Church about the Mother of God as an example of life, without the removal of Christian service, and a model to follow every Christian. Comments on liturgical texts in honor of the Virgin, stories about her miracles and phenomena, poems about her are also placed here.
In the life of every Christian who believed in the Savior of Christ, a meeting takes place with his mother - the Blessed Virgin Mary, and in many cases this meeting in the most dramatically changes his life. Perhaps the real edition will serve for this important meeting.
