Orthodox icon of the Most Holy Theotokos "Prousiotissa".

Commemorated August 23rd.

The story goes back a thousand years to the time when the heresy against the holy icons, Iconoclasm, was raging all over the Christian world. The Byzantine Emperor Theophilos had ordered, all holy icons be removed from the churches and burned. The Orthodox people were protecting and hiding the holy icons. They put themselves at risk of exile and even death for those icons.

In the year 829 this Holy Icon of the Theotokos, which according to tradition was painted by the hand of St. Luke the Evangelist, was kept in a beautiful church in the renowned city of Proussa. Today the church still stands in the city named Brusa, which is in Turkey near Constantinople. Many miracles have taken place in this Church. As soon as the decree of the Emperor reached the city of Proussa, a godly man, the son of an officer of the royal court, decided to disobey the Emperor's order.

He took the Holy Icon and fled to the mainland of Greece, because the persecution was less violent there. The young man was on his way to the city of Callipolis, (today Gallipoli or Gelibolu.) On his way to the city he lost the Holy Icon. His sorrow was great. Alas, to me the wretched one , he wailed. The Lady Theotokos left me because of my sins. However, he wouldn't turn back.

He could not endure living amongst the enemies of the icons. He continued his journey and settled in the city of New Patre, near the northwest end of Peloponnesus. Time went by, and then one day he heard news about some miraculous events, which happened in an area of Aitola, Greece.

Boys’ Formal Tuxedo Suit
I’m very satisfied with the Boys’ Formal Tuxedo Suit! The suit looked exactly like the pictures, the material feels nice, and it fit my boy perfectly. Delivery was on time and the packaging was good. Great quality for the price!

Great value and quality, runs slightly small.
This is a great deal and fit perfectly! My kid is more of a size 10 but I ordered size 12. It's only slightly big in the waist but the pants have elastic adjusters so we were able to make it work. It's great quality! We ordered yellow for a school play but I plan to order other colors because my kid feels like a million bucks in his new suit.

A great option for those looking to save some money!
Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Last May I got married in Alaska on a glacier. I wanted a suit/tux that would not only look halfway decent, but one that I could expose to the elements and not feel too bad about ruining. Luckily, nothing was ruined and it ended up looking great! The fit overall was relatively true to size with the jacket being a hair too narrow for shoulders. The material was surprisingly very comfortable and well made. I have a longer torso and the jacket was the perfect length as well. I've never been one to go all out spending a ton of money buying or renting a suit or tuxedo, so this was genuinely a lifesaver at the time. If you're in a pinch and need something nice to wear, or just looking to save some money, you won't be disappointed.

My Husband Gets SOOOO Many Compliments
Color: Royal Blue, Size: X-Small
My husband has a closet full of suits. I try to make sure he has 7 suits available to wear, so when his blue one started looking bad, I started looking for a new one, but with inflation money has been tight lately. I saw the price and the reviews on this one and thought, why not take a chance. Wow! I'm so glad I did. He loves it and he looks great. Every single time he wears it, people are like, where did you get that? That's a nice suit, and these are people who where suits (and their wives who know suits). The next time we need to replace a suit, I'm coming right back. He loves wearing it because he is always very comfortable and so far, it hasn't shown any signs of wear. The material is on the thinner side, but thicker than linen, and keeps its shape nicely. When we first got it, I steamed it, and I haven't needed to iron or steam it since, but he does keep it hing up when he isn't wearing it. Tip: use the size guide. I was very hesitant to buy a size as small as it was saying for my husband, but it was right on point. It is an absolutely perfect fit.
