About the Name-Day Gift Set
Their saint, their day.
Every Orthodox Christian carries a saint’s name and keeps that saint’s feast as a second birthday: the name day. This set gives them their patron in a folding velvet icon, beside the Guardian Angel who has kept watch over them since baptism. It is the gift Russians, Greeks and Serbs give on a name day, and it lasts longer than a birthday card.
Why a patron saint
The saint whose name you bear is your intercessor for life. Orthodox Christians pray to their patron every morning, keep the icon in the prayer corner, and celebrate on the feast day with church and a meal. A Nicholas is in the care of St Nicholas the Wonderworker, the quick helper of travelers, children and the poor. A Matthew is under the Apostle who left the tax booth for Christ. A Patrick is under the Enlightener of Ireland.
- For whom
a godchild, a husband or son on his name day, a friend at their chrismation, a parent who has everything.
