Saint John the Forerunner is the greatest of the Prophets and the central figure who prepared the way for the coming of Jesus Christ, known as the Lord’s Baptist. His ascetic life in the desert and his unwavering faith make him a symbol of repentance and truth.
In the sacred icons, he is often depicted with Angel wings (Angel of the Desert), emphasizing the otherworldly nature of his mission. As the Forerunner, his work is fundamental to the Christian Faith and its teaching.
Offer this sacred figure as a source of guidance, spiritual strengthening, and a reminder of the value of the apostolic life. His memory is celebrated many times throughout the year, with the main feast on January 7th, the day after the Epiphany (Theophania).
