Add this fully embroidered epigonation to your vestment treasury today and honor the legacy of Saints Peter & Paul while affirming the priestly call to guard and proclaim the Faith.
In the Byzantine and Slavic traditions, the epigonation (palitsa) is awarded to priests as a mark of scholarly achievement and authorization to hear confessions. Its sword-like diamond shape symbolizes the “sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God” (Eph 6:17). Depicting Saints Peter and Paul, pillars of the apostolic church, further emphasizes the bearer’s duty to preach the Gospel “in season and out of season” (2 Tim 4:2).
