Albanian Orthodox Embroidered Beanie

In 1967 communist Albania declared itself the world's first officially atheist state, banning every church and outlawing the faith Saint Cosmas of Aetolia had preached through these villages two centuries before. The Church reopened its doors only in 1991. Pulled low against the wind, this cross sits where that memory lives now, quiet, close, impossible to confiscate.

“Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” (Revelation 2:10)

O Lord, who didst preserve the Albanian Church through years of silence, keep faithful all who wear this cross, that what was hidden may be carried openly once more. Amen.

This Orthodox Cross beanie makes a meaningful gift for name days, baptisms, feast days, or for anyone who could use a little warmth and faith on cold-weather mornings.
