“We must remember that when the Lord sends us hardships, he also gives us the power to overcome it,” Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia, His Holiness and Beatitude Ilia II, said following a liturgy at Svetitskhoveli Cathedral.

In his blessing, the Patriarch reminded the parishioners that God never leaves them, leads them, and loves them.

On October 14, Georgia celebrates Svetitskhovloba, a day of Svetitskhoveli Cathedral in Mtskheta, recognized as the home of Christ’s mantle.
