The Holy Protection is one of the many feasts of the Mother of God. During an all-night vigil in the church of the Theotokos of Blachernae in Constantinople, sometime between 457 and 474 AD, Saint Andrew and his disciple Epiphanius saw the Most Holy Theotokos appear before their very eyes. She was accompanied by John the Baptist, John the Theologian and a host of angels. Once the Theotokos had entered the church, she kneeled and prayed for some time, with fervent tears, for the salvation of the faithful. After she had prayed, the Theotokos took her cloak in her hands and spread it over the congregation, signifying that she would cover and protect them. In honour of this event, the Church instituted the feast of the Holy Protection on the 28th of October. Work of ARTIS GILDING AND RESTORING.
