It's been almost two years since all twelve volumes of «My Synaxarion—A Saint For Every Day» have been completed and are being enjoyed by Orthodox families around the globe. 

Many use it every day during their morning routine; others, as far as we know, read it after their evening prayers. Lots of families use "M" Synaxarion—A Saint for Every Day" "as part of their homeschooling faith curriculum. 

It helps the whole family come together with a healthy routine. It can be adapted according to the age of your kids - read the entire thing with the older kids (approximately 10 minutes a day) or less with a toddler. 

There is a saint for every day of the month, and two pages are dedicated to each one of the saints. You have the icon, the life of the Saint (adapted for children), the Apolytikion or Kontakion of the Saint, the summary with the key facts, a map, a timeline, and some fascinating biographical, historical, and geographic facts. There are no long, gory details about the martyrdoms of the saints.

At the end of each book, you'll find a perennial calendar. This practical feature lists more saints celebrated on each day of the month, saving you the hassle of purchasing a new calendar each year. It's a small but significant way to make your homeschooling journey more efficient and cost-effective.

There is also a Paraklesis to a central Feast or Saint of the Month; some of our readers read it once a month, others weekly, and some every day.

At the beginning of each volume, you will find the contents with the Icon of each Saint or Feast. In contrast, at the end of each volume, there is also an Alphabetical list of the Saints featured.

Each of the twelve volumes consists of three parts: 

In the first part, we read the synaxarion, a troparion, a map, a timeline of the life of the Saint of the day, and substantial and exciting facts and tidbits from the history of his time.  

The second part of each volume includes either a supplication service/paraklesis or salutations to the central Saint or Feast of the month. 

September is the month of the Ecclesiastical Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, and therefore, we have included the Salutations to the Holy Cross.

You have undoubtedly felt sorry for a calendar depicting saints that you had to throw out. If it had only included dates, you could keep it for a lifetime.

In the third part we have included a perennial calendar in the third part of each of the twelve volumes, a unique feature that sets this series apart.
