The Old Believer icon of Our Lady of the Unburnt Thornbush is exquisite. It arrived this morning and is now hanging in my icon corner, alongside the other beautiful antique icons that I have acquired from the Russian Store.

Simon the Zealot was one of the most obscure among the apostles of Jesus. A few pseudepigraphical writings were connected to him, and his name occurs in all of the Synoptic Gospels and the Book of Acts each time there is a list of apostles, without further details. His feast is celebrated on May 10 (Eastern Christianity) and October 28 (Western Christianity) and he is a Holy Patron of curriers; sawyers; and tanners.
