Our Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew wrote in the Foreword: “The Virgin Mary in Holy Icons and Stories is a valuable resource of Marian devotion in the Iconography of the Holy Church, written in English for Orthodox and non-Orthodox alike, and we warmly encourage the reader to contemplate on the beauty presented in these Holy Icons.” In addition, His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America, His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios of Boston, Rev. Alkiviadis C. Calivas, V. Rev. Arch. Maximos Constas, and V. Rev. Anton C. Vrame have all highly praised the book.
