Hi pater welcome back my question is when it is the time of month for women are we allowed to go inside the church and kiss the icons      

 

Answer to Question 471

I have a very long answer to this question which I have posted many times in the past, but for today I will just give you the short answer which is that women can go to church and kiss the icons while on their monthly, the only thing they cannot do according to the canons of the church is partake of Holy Communion.
