Child Sticharions (Black-Silver)

A child sticharion or alb is an ankle length formal vestment with long sleeves and closed sides. It is a uniform that takes away the wearer’s individuality and confirms him as a representative of God - many young altar server feels proud wearing an ornate sticharion while assisting clergy for a divine service and other liturgical functions. We, at Istok Church Supplies, are proud to be a part of a movement to preserve and popularize the ancient practices of the Orthodox Christian faith and hence offer child sticharions in black and silver combination.

 

Dress According to Event

While child sticharions are standard across various Orthodox Christian communities, their color varies according to the time of year. Child sticharions in black and silver combination are worn for Divine Services and ecclesiastical functions during the weekdays of the Great Lent period and the Passion week. Istok Church Supplies presents these garments made with rayon or metallic jacquard brocade that remind onlookers of the grandeur that prevailed in bygone eras.
