Theotokos Joy of All Who Sorrow Framed Canvas Icon

This icon shows the Mother of God surrounded by those who suffer, the sick, the poor, and the grieving gathered close about her, each receiving in turn her tender and unwearied compassion. Her title, Joy of All Who Sorrow, speaks directly to the role the Church has always understood her to hold, a comforting intercessor for the brokenhearted and a refuge for any soul carrying a burden too heavy to bear alone. Several traditions surround the origin of this image, but each shares the same conviction, that the Mother of God does not turn away from suffering but draws near to it, offering not an explanation for sorrow but her own abiding presence within it. It is a deeply comforting icon to bring into a home during any season of hardship, and makes a meaningful gift for someone walking through grief or illness.

“He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted... to comfort all that mourn.” (Isaiah 61:1-2)

O Theotokos, joy of all who sorrow, who dost stand ever ready to comfort the brokenhearted, intercede for us in our afflictions, that through thy prayers we may know the consolation of thy Son. Amen.
