“THE MONASTERY OF VLACHERNA” Located on a tiny islet, this 17th c. Byzantine structure is one of the most iconic buildings on Corfu. Based on a Aniko Szedlak photo, so it’s a Virtual Sketchwalk! Done with a SHARPIE fineliner pen in an 8.5” x 11” KARST “Stone Paper” sketchbook. #LobstArtstudios @tom.brudzinski #dessinateur #artist #szkicownik zeichner #dessin #sketch #drawing #quicksketch #croquisrapide #croquis #szkic #szkicownik #virtualsketchwalk #corfu #monastery #churchesofcorfu #greekcatholic #vlachernamonastery #sharpiefineliner @anikoszedlak

Ἔτι καὶ ἔτι ἐν εἰρήνῃ τοῦ Κυρίου δεηθῶμεν.
Again and again, in peace, let us pray to the Lord.

( Κύριε, ἐλέησον. )
( Lord, have mercy. )

Ἀντιλαβοῦ, σῶσον, ἐλέησον καὶ διαφύλαξον ἡμᾶς, ὁ Θεός, τῇ σῇ χάριτι.
Help us, save us, have mercy on us, and protect us, O God, by Your grace.

( Κύριε, ἐλέησον. )
( Lord, have mercy. )

Τῆς παναγίας, ἀχράντου, ὑπερευλογημένης, ἐνδόξου, δεσποίνης ἡμῶν Θεοτόκου καὶ ἀειπαρθένου Μαρίας μετὰ πάντων τῶν ἁγίων μνημονεύσαντες, ἑαυτοὺς καὶ ἀλλήλους καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ζωὴν ἡμῶν Χριστῷ τῷ Θεῷ παραθώμεθα.
Commemorating our most holy, pure, blessed, and glorious Lady, the Theotokos and ever-virgin Mary, with all the saints, let us commend ourselves and one another and our whole life to Christ our God.

( Σοί, Κύριε. )
( To You, O Lord. )

Ὅτι σὸν τὸ κράτος καὶ σοῦ ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ δόξα, τοῦ Πατρὸς καὶ τοῦ Υἱοῦ καὶ τοῦ Ἁγίου Πνεύματος, νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.
For Yours is the dominion, and Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages.

( Ἀμήν. )
(Amen)
