How to Choose Icons for an Orthodox Home Prayer Corner

A home prayer corner does not need a large collection of icons. A few carefully chosen sacred images can provide a stable place for daily prayer.

Where should I begin?

Icons of Jesus Christ and the Theotokos are a natural foundation. A patron saint icon can then make the prayer space more personal.

Must all icons match?

No. A prayer corner can include icons from different canonical Orthodox traditions.
