Icon of St. John Chrysostom, a gift from the artist, my friend and wise teacher, the late Charles Frazee, longtime church history professor at Bloy House, The Episcopal Theological School at Los Angeles.

O God, who gave your servant John Chrysostom grace eloquently to proclaim your righteousness in the great congregation, and fearlessly to bear reproach for the honor of your Name: Mercifully grant to all who proclaim your word such excellence in preaching, that all your people may be made partakers of the glory that shall be revealed; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen.

— Book of Common Prayer
