О любви и семье. Молитвы. Каноны. Акафисты

This prayer book is dedicated to the most sacred – love and family, what the Lord gives us as a great gift. Under one cover – prayers, canons, and akathists for different periods of family life: when a person is looking for their soulmate, when preserving the marital union, when eagerly awaiting the birth of a child, and when carrying parental prayer for children.
The prayer book includes: prayers and akathist to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, prayers to Saint Blessed Xenia of Petersburg, akathist to the Most Holy Theotokos (Great Akathist), akathist to the holy righteous Peter and Fevronia of Murom – protectors of marriage and family happiness, canon to the martyrs Adrian and Natalia, akathist to the righteous Godbearers Joachim and Anna and to the holy elders Cyril and Maria of Radonezh – the parents of Saint Sergius, canon before the Theodorov icon of the Mother of God and akathist before the icon “Milk Giver” – for safe childbirth and motherhood, prayers before the icons “Teaching” and “Increase of Mind”, canon to Saint Matrona of Moscow, canon to the martyrs Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sophia, prayers to healer Panteleimon and Saint Spyridon of Trimythous, as well as selected teachings of Saint John Chrysostom on marriage, children, and upbringing.
The prayer book will help find the right words to God, the Most Holy Theotokos, and the holy protectors of the family at any moment in life: in searching for one's half, in wedding and marriage, in waiting for and raising children, in family sorrows and illnesses.
A wonderful gift for a wedding, engagement, marriage, for a future mother – or just for a loved one who keeps the Orthodox tradition in their family.
