Heading up the Procession

Leading the procession that brought all the clergy, the relics and the hierarchs into the area where the Vigil would be conducted was an Antiochian priest, Rev. Fr. Paul Alberts of Toledo. Fr. Paul had brought this icon with him to the glorification to be blessed at the Liturgy before the glorification. Not shown here, at the base of the icon is a star-shaped reliquary containing a relic of our holy father Raphael.
