Feast of Orthodoxy
A synod called early in 843 deposed John Grammaticus, elected Methodius as patriarch, condemned all the iconoclasts and confirmed the rulings of the Seventh General Council at Nicea in 787, backing the position presented by John of Damascus. Orthodox churches today still celebrate the first Sunday in Lent each year as the Feast of Orthodoxy, to commemorate the triumph of icons.
