Here are the icons for our home chapel. We don’t actually have the chapel yet, or the home for that matter, but the plan is that when we have the space we’ll set up a full chapel in our home – or more likely in a spare room of an apartment. These icons, measuring 12” x 16”, have been a work in progress the past two and a half years. I’m really thankful they’re all finally ready for use.
Now when we are in Fredericton (at a make shift chapel for Divine Liturgy on Saturdays) we can use these hand-painted icons instead of copies. All that’s left is for me to varnish them.
Phew! You have no idea how happy I am to see them completely finished and ready for liturgical worship!
Doxa se o Theos!
I chose to paint Christ as the Highpriest because I felt He should surpass the majesty of St. Nektarios as a Hierarch. He turned out to be my favourtie of the three.
Thank the Lord for icons to bless our homes and chapels! Been thinking of you!
These are beautifully written. They are a wonderful source of inspiration and will, no doubt, be a blessing to your new home and the chapel. Thank you for sharing them with all of us. Our love to you and to Fr. Dr. John.
So beautiful in their truth and in their execution! Thanks for sharing them.
