The Significance of Virgin Mary Panagia of Tinos
Panagia of Tinos, also known as the Megalochari of Tinos (Great Grace) or Evangelistria of Tinos (Our Lady of Good Tidings), is the national patron saint and protector of Greece.
The name ‘Megalochari’ means “with all graces” and is one of the names given to describe Virgin Mary. The church is dedicated to the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary and is also the most popular pilgrimage in Greece.
The church of Panagia Megalochari is located on a hill above Chora, the capital of Tinos, and is globally known as a sacred place of spiritual pilgrimage and divine worship.
The title Theotokos (in Greek, Θεοτόκος) is a Greek word that means "God-bearer" or "Birth-giver to God.
The Orthodox Church remembers the life of the Theotokos with several feast days. The Liturgical year begins and ends with the feast days of the Theotokos. Wonder-working icons of the Theotokos also have their own feast days.
