Theotokos Herondissa beeswax icon

The miraculous icon of the Mother of God "Herondissa" is the main shrine of the Pantokratoros monastery. In Greek, "Herondissa" means "elderly woman", because she exudes a special grace to people of old age. Our Lady "Herondissa" is considered to be the patroness of the elderly, hence her name.

What do we pray the Mother of God "Herondissa" for?

• Welfare in old age. The prayer may concern either the one praying or his/her parents, relatives and loved ones;
• Helping people "between life and death": those in a coma, those suffering from heart disease, those who have had a heart attack and a stroke;
• Protection against sudden death, death without repentance. This is very important for Orthodox believers.
