Rila Monastery Orthodox Christian Black Coffee Mug

Rila Monastery is the largest and most revered Eastern Orthodox monastery in Bulgaria and one of the most magnificent monastic complexes in the entire Balkans. Founded in the 10th century by Saint John of Rila, Bulgaria's greatest hermit and patron saint, the monastery sits nestled in the Rila Mountains at an elevation of 1147 metres. Its stunning architecture, vibrant frescoes and centuries of unbroken monastic life have earned it recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The monastery houses the relics of Saint John of Rila and has served for over a millennium as the spiritual, cultural and national heart of the Bulgarian Orthodox people.

"For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (Matthew 18:20)

O venerable Father John of Rila, great ascetic and intercessor for the Bulgarian people, pray unto the Lord for all who venerate thy holy monastery and seek thy protection. Amen.

This mug makes a wonderful gift for baptisms, name days, Bulgarian Orthodox feast days, Easter, Christmas or any occasion where faith is honoured and shared.
