Pill Box Mother of God Athonitissa

A metal box with three compartments for storing pills, incense or any other small items. The lid has an image of the Mother of God Athonitissa.

Holy Mount Athos is imbued with a profound sense of Our Lady's presence; the same presence that resonates throughout the lives of those who turn to Her. Her image permeates our existence, inspires, comforts and educates: sometimes directly, and sometimes through Her images, the holy icons. Her names are innumerable, as are Her images. Each icon keeps its own story of the miracles She manifested.

Theotokos Athonitissa

This icon of the Theotokos Athonitissa depicts the Mother of God as the protectress of the Holy Mountain. She is depicted wearing the vestments of an Abbess while standing atop Mount Athos. At her feet can be seen all of the monasteries of the Holy Mountain, while to her left and right are depicted several of the countless Saints of Athos.

The Church celebrates this icon on the 28th of August.
