My Beloved Ones,
This Sunday the Orthodox Church is blessed to commemorate the 350 Holy Fathers of the Seventh Ecumenical Council, held in Nicaea in the year 787. The purpose of this council was to refute the Iconoclastic Persecution issued by an edict issued in 726. For nearly 60 years, beginning under the command of Emperor Leo the Isaurian, icons were banned from churches, and those who advocated the Orthodox position were persecuted, and martyred.
