Large Silver Icon - Virgin Mary and Saints Description
« The Orthodox Church honors the Virgin Mary as more venerable than the Cherubim, and incomparably more glorious than the Seraphim, above all creatures. She sees her as the Mother of God, she who intercedes with her Son for all of humanity, and she constantly implores Him to this end. The love and veneration of the Mother of God is the soul of Orthodox piety, its heart, that warms and brings to life the entire body.
Christian Orthodoxy is the life in Christ Son of God and of the Virgin, the love of Christ inseparable of the love of the Mother of God. The Orthodox Church invokes the very holy Name of Jesus and the very gentle Name of Mary in the same breath (which is why the icons of the Virgin show Mary carrying in her arms the God-Child), and its love makes no distinction between them.
He or she who doesn't venerate Mary doesn't know Christ either. And a faith in Christ that doesn't include the devotion to the Mother of God, is a different faith, a christianity that is different of that of the Church. »
