The series titled "The Holy Marys of the Greeks" features a brief yet responsible presentation of the history of the most well-known and beloved images of the Most Holy Theotokos among the Greeks.
The love and honor attributed to these icons become evident when they are displayed for veneration in the capital or other cities of Greece. It is then that one realizes the degree of reverence even from those considered secular, who form enormous "queues" in order to kiss the sacred icon, offer a flower before the Theotokos, light their candle, and above all, confide "from the depths of their hearts" their problems, supplications, or express their "thank you" and gratitude for some miraculous intervention in their lives.
For they know that the "Mistress of the World" is the "hope and protection of the faithful," who does not overlook their requests and intercedes for "the good and beneficial for their souls," ensuring that no one leaves her presence feeling "ashamed."
