Venerable Abbot Joseph of Volotsk (Volokolamsk) - wooden icon
Size: 12x15 cm (5”x6”)
Bring a sense of peace, devotion, and spiritual strength into your home with this beautifully crafted icon of Venerable Abbot Joseph of Volotsk (Volokolamsk) — one of the great pillars of Russian monasticism.
Saint Joseph is honored for his unwavering faith, deep humility, and service to both God and people. He lived according to the strictest monastic rules, cared lovingly for his elderly father, and gave away all the monastery’s food to the hungry during times of famine. He sought no wealth or earthly glory—only Christ.
Recognized as an exemplary monk, defender of the Orthodox faith, and miracle worker, Saint Joseph has been venerated throughout Russia since 1589. His holy relics and ascetic chains rest in the Assumption Cathedral of the Joseph-Volokolamsk Monastery.
This icon highlights the spiritual dignity of the saint and includes the traditional magnification:
“We bless you, O Father Joseph, and we honor your holy memory, teacher of monks and companion of angels.”
Perfect for prayer corners, Orthodox home décor, and meaningful religious gifts.
