Abul Icon of the Mother of God

Commemorated on June 11.

This variant of the Spanish Icon (April 8) appeared in Serbia at the end of the VII century. In the XVI century, it was moved to the city of Abul in Spain (hence its name Abul), where it is located today. Tradition has it that in 1870, a blind maiden was healed before this wonderworking Icon in the church of the Holy Martyrs Vincent, Sabinus and Crescentius.

From that time forward, they began to celebrate the Abul Icon on June 11.

Troparion

Your Icon, O Virgin Lady, was given to us as an inexhaustible source of miracles,
bestowed upon those who are overwhelmed and afraid,
pouring forth the healing of the afflictions for the sick,
which is a sign of your intercession.
By the Cross of your Son, we conquer our enemies;
and to you, our Queen and Sovereign Lady,
we offer a song of praise.
