The Nativity of the Theotokos is one of the Great Feasts of the Orthodox Church, celebrated on September 8. There are many resources that can be found through Mystagogy website:
"All of creation rejoices in you, O Full of Grace, The assembly of Angels and the race of men. O Sanctified Temple and rational Paradise! O Glory of Virgins! From you, God was incarnate and become a child, our God before the ages. He made your body into a throne, and your womb H made more spacious than the heavens. All of Creation rejoices in you, O Full of Grace! Glory to you!"
St Basil the Great
