The Feast of the Pochaev Icon of the Holy Mother of God.

Commemorated September 8 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

In the province of Volinsk there stands the famous monastery of the Mother of God in Pochaev, where she first appeared in about 1340 to two monks who were living the ascetic life in a cave. From that time, the place became an inexhaustible fount of innumerable miracles.
