Synaxis of the Optina Elders (Slavonic)
In this icon, two of the elders hold scrolls and one holds a book.
The Elder Amvrosy's scroll says, “Brethren, I beg you to have the fear of God and to guard your conscience in all your dealings and actions; above all else, humble yourselves.” (Extract from Letter No. 18 of his Collected Letters, in three volumes.)
The Elder Makary's scroll says, “Brethren, let us take care for the salvation of our souls and make haste (or, be earnest) at all times to call upon the name of God for help.”
The Elder Lev's book says, “The icon (image, example) of monasticism; the image of humility.”
The 8 x 10 mounted icons are the standard size. All enlargements and reductions, listed in the drop-down list, are special orders, and require up to four weeks to complete.
