Miracle of the Myrrh Streaming Icon

This shows myrrh streaming from the Iveron Icon of the Holy Theotokos in Hawaii. The myrrh slowly exudes from the face of the Theotokos who is holding the Christ Child. The icon is originally from the Russian Orthodox Church of Hawaii. It was lent to St. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church during the Lenten season of 2008. My family and I were on a vacation and were blessed by the anointing of the myrrh on our foreheads. The powerful fragrance of the sweet smelling myrrh was overpowering and very spiritual. I have never seen anything like this before in my life. My entire family thank God for experiencing this miracle first hand.

I took this video of my family being blessed by the myrrh in Honolulu, Hawaii. The myrrh fragrance was so overwhelming when I was anointed that I could barely speak at first.

I find things like this to be fascinating and very moving-and I'm an atheist!!

I was blessed to venerate this icon and receive a piece of cotton soaked with the myrrh last night in Roslindale, MA! It was an amazing experience!

@mikelunz Fine then. My point still stands.

[mikelunz]

@brainiac554 No, Sotulis made a statement, you made an argument. Sotulis never responded, and made no argument. I am only making this point because your name is "brainiac." ;D

[brainiac554]

@mikelunz If you're going to argue in English, speak English.

[mikelunz]

@brainiac554 Of course not, because Atheists would expect that people from all countries speak perfect English. (Sotulis lives in Greece.)

@sotulis "Atheists expect big ufo's landing sended from God." Atheists don't expect someone who uses words like "sended" to understand.

I was blessed this morning by this bishop and this steaming icon in my church, Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Portland Oregon :) it was truly amazing

[sotulis]

simple miracles, simple people, poor people is the favourite for God.

Atheists expect big ufo's landing sended from God.

But God is simple and Looks straight in the men's hearts.
