On this day, the transfer of his relics and the miracles that happened to them are celebrated. Saint Athanasius the Great left behind a large number of writings and a whole treasury of spiritual pearls, e.g.: "Our home is the Church and in it we should also have the same opinion, because in this way we believe that the Lord will dwell together with us, as what he said: I will move into them, and I will live in them (II Cor. 6, 16), and: I will settle here, because I like it (Ps. 132, 14). And where is that ``here'' if not where the same faith and piety are preached?" (Tomos of Antioch, 1). Or: "God has no necessity in anyone; He is sufficient to Himself and filled with Himself, and everything is contained in Him, or better said - He gives being to everything (Protiv Jelinya, 28).
