Hello Friends!

I looking for an appropriate gift for some friends who have been trying for several years to have a child and have recently been successful. They are protestant but very open to Eastern Christianity (They were both in our wedding).
Do any of you have any recommendations or websites? I thought perhaps an icon of a Guardian Angel would be appropriate.
Thank you.

An icon of the Nativity would be an excellent teaching and reminder of their little ones birth.

Dear Sotnyk,

(I had an uncle whose syrname was "Sotnyk!")

If they have given the baby a name, perhaps you could get an icon of the baby's patron Saint, with particulars about the Saint's life etc.

I would be pleased to assist you!

Alex
