Main church events in October

The key among all church days in October 2022 is only one.

Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos

The Triumph of the Intercession is associated with the legend of how the Mother of God, Saint Mary, protected Constantinople from a great disaster.

When the siege of Constantinople began in the 10th century, all residents hid from enemies in search of protection in the Blachernae temple. The church service began, everyone began to pray for the salvation of the city and their lives. When the service ended, people saw the Blessed Virgin, who rose above the iconostasis. There were many other saints with her.

Mary prayed, removed her veil from her head and spread it over people, thereby protecting them from enemies. The troops gradually retreated, and on that the siege of Constantinople ended.

According to the old style, the holiday was celebrated on a different day. Therefore, not everyone knows exactly what date the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos is in 2022. It is always celebrated on October 14th. On this day in churches they invariably pray to the Blessed Virgin, hoping for her blessing.
