Ukrainian Catholic Church, Pokrova (The Protection of the Mother of God)
Today's Feast, known in Ukrainian as the Pokrova or Protection of Mary the Mother of God, is a long standing Ukrainian religious tradition. Icons and
mosaics symbolise this traditional belief by showing as the central figure Mary the Mother of
Christ holding in her outstretched arms a mantle/cape (an orarion) representing Mary’s
constant spiritual protection.
