Handmade Byzantine Icon of Saint Domnica of Constantinople.
Saint Domnica was born in Africa but at a young age she travelled to Constantinople during the years of the empire of Theodosius the Great.
Patriarch Nektarios became aware of the virtues of Saint Domnica and baptized her. In the following years, Saint Domnica devoted herself to solitary life and charity in order to help her community and teach the Word of God.
Troparion
(Podoben: “Come, let us worship the Word…”)
With the streams of your tears, you cultivated the barrenness of the desert, / and by your sighings from the depths, your labors bore fruit a hundredfold, / and you became a luminary of the world, radiant with miracles, / O Domnica our Mother. Intercede with Christ God for the salvation of our souls.
