Orthodox Church in America

in the Russian tradition

Icon of the Mother of God, Rescuer of the Perishing

We give thanks to God for everyone He sends to our Cathedral and warmly welcome all those wishing to learn more about the Orthodox faith. Most important is your sincere desire to follow the Founder and the Head of the Orthodox Church, our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ!

Troparion

Rescue us who are perishing, O Theotokos Virgin, not according to our sins chastising us, but according to Thy loving kindness having mercy. Deliver us from hades, from sickness and necessity, and save us.

Kontakion

We have no other help, we have no other hope, but Thee, O Lady; come to our aid. We put our hope in Thee and we make Thee our boast. We are thy servants, may we not be put to shame.
