Welcome to the Elijah's Mantle

        Elijah's Mantle is a conduit for used and excess liturgical items to be reused by other churches and missions as they are needed. It relies completely on donations from churches with excess, churches that are closing, and clergy that have reposed or retire. It accepts items such as cassocks, vestments, icons, liturgical books, and liturgical utensils. It does not accept things which need extensive repair or which are not serviceable. The items received are made available to any church, mission, or clergy who requests them (as long as they are part of the Orthodox Faith) for the cost of shipping the items. 
        Items that are donated and shipped to Elijah's Mantle are stored at Saint Tikhons Orthodox Theological Seminary in South Canaan, Pennsylvania, and cared for by students of the seminary. Please contact us by email to arrange shipment.

The Troparion of the Prophet Elijah (July 20)

 An angel in the flesh and the cornerstone of the prophets,
the second forerunner of the coming of Christ,
Glorious Elijah sent grace from on high to Elisha,
to dispel diseases and to cleanse lepers.
Therefore, he pours forth healings on those who honor him.
We claim the Prophet Elijah as our Patron Saint, because it was by his mantle that upon Elisha was bestowed a double portion of the Grace of the Holy Spirit.
