Liturgy · October 10, 2026

Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Cathedral, 109 Grand Street, Jersey City, NJ 07302

On Saturday morning, October 10, our diocese will be blessed by the presence of the miraculous Myrrh-Streaming Iveron Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos from Hawaii, and Saints Peter and Paul is the first stop on its visit. We will have a service before the icon, everyone present will be anointed with the myrrh, and refreshments will follow.

In June of 2008 the Holy Myrrh-Streaming Hawaiian Iveron Icon was officially recognized by the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia as miraculous and genuine, and given the blessing to travel to the churches and monasteries of Holy Orthodoxy. The icon continues to stream myrrh to this day.

If you belong to pan-Orthodox groups, or have friends who have never been inside an Orthodox church, please invite them. Parking is available at St. Peter's Prep.
