Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Atlanta

My Beloved Ones,

As we approach the end of July, we are blessed to participate in the Fast which precedes the Dormition of the Virgin Mary. As we prepare, I would like us to consider two feasts, both of which are about the power of faith, and the need to submit to the will of God. This Sunday, July 25^th, we are blessed to honor the Dormition of St. Anna. Now, the Virgin Mary’s mother has several Feast Days, the most well-known of which is also the feast of her husband St. Joachim (September 9^th). Tradition tells us that St. Anne did not live to witness the Annunciation, but I believe that her influence on Christ’s earthly life can be felt.
