The Way of a Pilgrim Bookstore is
located in the church narthex, offering a wide selection of icons, books, cards, music
CDs, crosses, and other devotional items. Orthodox books, magazines, and videos may also
be borrowed from the church library, located in the upstairs meeting room.
A bookshelf is devoted to icons of the Theotokos (Mother of
God), in addition to larger scale icons of Mary elsewhere in the store. The lovely
Ostrobramska icon is a favorite with many people. The
name comes from the "Ostry" (sharp) end of the city wall around Vilnius,
Lithuania, which had a "brama" (gate) where a chapel was built featuring this
"Ostrobramska" icon. In the early 17th century, the icon passed into the hands
of Roman Catholic Carmelite monks in Poland, but has since been reclaimed by the
Lithuanians. As such it came to be venerated widely by Poles and Lithuanians, Russians and
Ukrainians, Catholics and Orthodox. It also has many names, including the Latin
"Mater Misericodiae" (Mother of Mercy) and Slavonic "Umilenie"
(Tenderness). The Bookstore offers this beloved icon in three sizes: Small
(2.5"x3", $5), Medium-Large (5"x6.25", $20) and Large
(7"x8.5", $30).
"The
Divine Liturgy of the Holy Orthodox Church of Antioch" is a beautiful and unique
recording. It was made recently in Lebanon during a brief and somewhat miraculous period
of calm in the midst of prolonged turmoil that otherwise would have made the production
impossible. The skilled and honey-voiced choir practiced so that they could chant the
liturgy in English for this recording, and they do an admirable job. The performance of
the reader on the Epistle is particularly striking. Price: $18.
"The American
Orthododox Church" masterfully traces the progress and struggles of emerging new
world Orthodoxy, from 18th century pioneer days to the latest issues facing the Church
today. The story of each important figure in American Orthodoxy is told concisely and in
context, including inspiring tales of each American Saint starting with Sts. Herman and
Innocent. This incisive and comprehensive book looks deeply within the American Church as
no other volume has, examining the beginnings of all the various "denominations"
and their triumphs and failures, bringing the reader to a real understanding of how
Orthodox developed within the crucible of American immigrant culture and convulsive
worldwide events. Published in 2003, price $22.95.
