Kontakion (Tone 8)
O Lord, your disciple Philip inspired by God, your beloved one and the imitator of your passion, has preached your divinity to the world. Through his intercession and for the sake of the Mother of God, guard your Church and your flock from their enemies, O most merciful Christ our God!

This icon located outside, over the front door of St. Philip's Orthodox Church, shows Philip under Christ's right arm, showing Christ's protection of His Apostle and of the church of which he is the Patron. "Come and See" Icons, Books & Art takes its name from this icon. Apostle Philip's scroll says "Come and see" while Jesus Christ responds, "You shall see Heaven open." Icons are windows to heaven, calling us to prepare through prayer and repentance; and conveying the presence of the Saints into our homes.

This Icon is by the hand of Nicholas Papas.
