Hi Sam, Yes, that is my icon, which is my absolute favorite in the world. It is also a special icon in that its history miraculously bridges the East with the West. Sincerely in Christ, Alice

I think its beatiful as well. From What i understand one of the Popes had a great devotion to the Icon. i want to buy a copy of it from Monastery Icons some day.

Dear Sam, Could you plese tell me what your beautiful and looooong Latin moniker/name means-- all I can discern in the beautiful Latin is 'ecclesia' which I know means church. Thanks! Sincerely in Christ, Alice

sure. It means "Outside the church there is no Salvation". Its a defined Catholic Dogma.

Incognitus Dear Incognitus, I did a quick 'google' search and found this: The �phat� in phatmass stands for �Preaching Holy Apostolic Truth�. The website was built in 2000 as a personal act of penance, but it has evolved into much more than that. Phatmass is now a community of orthodox Catholics attempting to create a cultural movement within the Church. This is a truly "Gen X" site, with good graphics, great design, and excellent material. Regards, Alice
