The myrrh-streaming and wonderworking Hawaiian Iveron Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos began its pilgrimage through Western Canada this week with a stop at St. Herman of Alaska Church in Langley, British Columbia (OCA).
Fr. Nectarios Yangson, the guardian of the holy icon, has traveled all over the world with it since it began streaming myrrh in his basement in Hawaii in 2007. In August, he traveled to Bulgaria, where thousands of Orthodox faithful were able to venerate the Mother of God. Miraculous healings were reported during the trip.
And on Wednesday, November 11, a Paraklesis before the the myrrh-streaming icon drew hundreds of Orthodox faithful to St. Herman’s.
The parish reports that eight priests served and 540 faithful came to venerate the icon.
