ICONS

 

You are seen.
You are loved.
Communion is possible for all of you.

I make icons for my generation – in that we are psychologically complicated, troubled, ashamed, and insecure. We struggle to find the sobriety and courage to turn our true faces to God in faith. The Church’s icons are here to help us in this struggle.

“The icon of St. Marina we have in our home is a blessing. She is the patron saint of pregnancy and birth, and was a comfort during my pregnancy and the birth of our son. Her icon has also travelled to other friends' homes during their pregnancies. Today, my son loves to hold and kiss her icon, and I'm always glad to welcome the icon back to our home after she's been gone.”

– Polly T.
