THE SLEEPING OF MARY
During his last moments on the cross, Jesus took care of his mother. She commissioned the evangelist John to have her live with him, his brother Jacob and their mother Salomi, a member of the Virgin Mary's family. The Virgin Mary lived her life with pain anticipating the moment when she would meet her only Son. Three days before her Dormition, the Archangel Gabriel informed her that the time has come to leave her earthly life. She prayed on the Mount of Olives and returned to John's house. According to tradition, the Apostles, despite being in different places to spread the Gospel, came to his bedside to be present at His Dormition. Also present were Dionysios Areopagitis, San Jerotheos, Apostle Timotheos and many other prelates.
 The original of the particular icon of the Dormition is found in the Stavronikita Monastery of Mount Athos, elaborated by Theophanes the Cretan, in 1546 AD
