Orthodox believers have long treated the Most Holy Theotokos with special veneration, which is reflected in a large number of icons, lists, churches in honor Mother of God. The story of each image is unique and filled with divine miracle. In Moscow there is a temple of the icon of the Mother of God, the Tsaritsa, which appeared not by chance and is always filled with believers praying to the Mother of God for salvation from various ailments, illnesses, and evil forces.

History of the temple

In Russia, Orthodox believers had a chance to see a copy of the miraculous icon of the Mother of God, the All-Tsaritsa, the original of which is located in the Athos temple, only in 1995. Community of Saint's Charity righteous John Kronstadtsky turned to the governor of the Vatopedi Monastery on Mount Athos, Archimandrite Ephraim, with a request for a copy of the miraculous icon of the All-Tsarina for the children's cancer center. This center is permanently located a large number of young patients and their parents, who should have a chance to directly appeal to the image of the Mother of God for healing.

The request received a positive response and blessing that the list of the icon of the All-Tsarina be written in compliance with the church canon, prayer sessions and solemn services.

Thus, a list of the All-Tsaritsa icon appeared in Moscow, first at the Children's Oncology Center at Kashirskoye Highway, and later moved to the Church of All Saints on Krasnoselsky Lane, where it remains to this day. Periodically, the icon of the All-Tsarina is delivered to child Center oncology for holding a service there and the opportunity for everyone to venerate the image and pray.

In 2000, a home church of the Icon of the All-Tsarina was created at the clinic of the P. A. Herzen Oncology Institute with the blessing of Patriarch Alexy 2. In 2011, this church was expanded and updated with the blessing of Patriarch Kirill. The church is open to a limited circle of believers: employees, patients of the clinic and institute.

The main icon of the Mother of God, called the All-Tsarina, or Pantanassa, has been in Greece in the Vatopedi monastery since the 17th century. Located in the cathedral church to the left of the royal gate.

The icon is small in size. It depicts Holy Virgin Mary with a baby in her arms. The Mother of God sits on a throne, behind which are located on both sides two angels, reverently overshadowing the Most Pure Virgin with their wings. Baby Jesus is in the arms of the Mother of God, holding a scroll in his left hand, and sending a blessing with his right hand.

According to church traditions, the first miracle from the icon of the All-Tsarina happened in ancient times. The young man, who has no faith and is engaged in witchcraft and magic, which is recognized by the church as a sin, decided to perform a witchcraft ritual in front of the icon of the Mother of God, which was not destined to happen. During his muttering, the face of the Virgin Mary lit up with a bright radiance. This light was filled with unusual power and threw the sinner very far from the icon. The young man was frightened and decided to repent of his actions before the servants of this temple and become a monk in order to serve at the church on Athos.

This event was perceived as a miracle from the holy image, which led the lost soul to repentance and faith. The wonderful events from the All-Tsaritsa icon do not end there. People turning to the image of the Virgin Mary for help in this temple began to testify to miraculous healing from an illness in the form of a malignant and benign tumor.

Cancer is not new disease modern times, but a problem that people faced back in the 17th century, but there was no medical treatment as such. The sick turned with prayer to the Mother of God, who was considered the only salvation. Those who prayed sincerely and with all their soul received healing, as evidenced by the entries in the church books of the monastery in Vatopedi on Athos.

Numerous copies of the icon began to be made and sent around the world, so that more people with cancer or their relatives would have hope for healing by turning to the image of the All-Tsarina.

Having appeared in Russia, the icon of the Mother of God to the All-Tsaritsa also showed a miracle. The improvement of children's health in the oncology center in Moscow began to be diagnosed more often with the appearance of the icon, because doctors themselves noted this phenomenon, explaining that drugs cannot provide such a result.

Confirmation that the icon is miraculous is the fact that the image began to flow myrrh on the day of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The temple was filled with fragrance from a few drops. It was again noticed that the icon streams myrrh on the day of the Entry of the Most Holy Theotokos into the temple. Such signs strengthened the spirit of believers and those praying for recovery from cancer and other ailments.

The first liberation of a young man from illness, or more precisely, from drug addiction, is the beginning of miraculous help from the icon of the All-Tsarina in Russia. The good news was passed around Moscow from mouth to mouth and there were more and more people wanting to touch the shrine and pray for their misfortune. It was decided to move the icon to the Church of All Saints and periodically deliver it back to the children's center for worship and spiritual assistance to the sick and their families.

The history of writing copies of the icon of the Mother of God the Tsaritsa for Moscow does not end here. In 1997, the miraculous image of the Mother of God appeared in the Novospassky Monastery. The icon has the same property of streaming myrrh and helping the desperate, those praying with a special sense of faith, to be healed or receive relief from illness.

In the Moscow region there is another list of the All-Tsaritsa - located in the city of Serpukhov in the Vladychny convent. It is recorded that this image streamed myrrh 30 times, which is a real miracle.

What do people pray for to the icon of the Mother of God All-Tsaritsa?

The icon of the Mother of God the All-Tsarina, both in Moscow and in other churches, is addressed by people who themselves or their loved ones have encountered cancer. This icon is revered by Orthodox believers as miraculous specifically in the issue of cancer, which has been known to people since the 17th century, when the tumor was given the name not cancer, but “carcinoma”, translated into Russian as “crab” and “tumor”, which indicates a form of disease that most often resembles a crustacean creature. Hippocrates discovered such a tumor back in 1600 BC, giving it a name and the conclusion that at an early stage it can only be cured by surgery, but at a later stage it is better not to touch it, because there is no cure.

Children, parents, other relatives and friends turn to the icon with prayers. These are sad appeals from parents who believe in recovery until the very end and pray to the Mother of God for strength to overcome this path.

People also turn to the miraculous icon for other illnesses, before operations for which doctors do not give positive prognoses.

In the book of records of miraculous recoveries of people turning to the icon of the All-Tsaritsa, a case is described. After suffering a stroke, a man decided to check his well-being and underwent an MRI examination. The diagnosis shocked him, because after overcoming a stroke, he learned about brain oncology. Surgery was required. The patient decided to visit the Church of the Icon of the Mother of God the Tsaritsa for a blessing for a serious step. He was accompanied by his wife, who ordered a prayer service to the image of the Virgin Mary with the blessing of water, which the man took with him to the hospital. Daily Prayers The saint and drinking water gave a positive result - no tumor was detected during the preoperative MRI examination, which became a fact about miraculous healings of believers and sincerely praying Christians.

Miracles from the Icon “The Queen of All”

* * * In April 2002, I suffered a hypertensive crisis and was treated in a hospital in Serpukhov. After being discharged from the hospital, when my blood pressure was lowered to moderate values, at the insistence of my relatives, I had a magnetic tomography of the brain vessels. Tomography showed the presence of a space-occupying lesion in the brain as a result of prolonged high blood pressure. I was recommended to go for examination to the Podolsk City Hospital in the neurosurgical department. In Podolsk, I had a second tomogram of my brain and was told about the upcoming brain surgery. Before going to Podolsk, I took a blessing from the priest of your monastery for further examination and surgery, confessed and received communion. My wife ordered a prayer service for the “All-Tsarina” icon with the blessing of water at your monastery. While I was in the Podolsk hospital, I constantly prayed to the All-Tsarina to grant me recovery and drank holy water taken from the monastery after the prayer service. My relatives also prayed to the All-Tsaritsa for my recovery and to the Savior with a prayer in agreement not to confirm the diagnosis of an oncological formation in the brain. Shortly before the operation, the doctor who had been appointed as my attending physician returned from vacation. He proposed conducting another additional control examination at the Podolsk military hospital. The results of the examination showed that there was no need for surgical intervention, but indicated the possibility of conventional therapeutic treatment of cerebral vessels with drugs. The next day I was discharged from the Podolsk hospital and am currently undergoing treatment at the district clinic at my place of residence. R.B. Vladimir. Serpukhov.

* * * Thank God for everything! By the grace of God, having visited the monastery in April 2003, I purchased oil from the icon of the Mother of God “The Tsaritsa”. About a month later, my left eye became inflamed, redness appeared, and there was severe pain on the left side of my head. She treated with medicine, applied holy items, drank water, but there was no improvement, several days passed. Then I remembered about the oil from the icon of the Mother of God “The Tsarina of All” (it was already night), I anointed my eye with it in several places in a cross shape, asked for help from the Most Holy Theotokos and lay down. Improvement occurred within half an hour, then I fell asleep. Afterwards, I no longer used medication, I only anointed it with oil. Through prayers and through the intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos, the Lord healed my eye. To which I testify with the fear of God. Servant of God Elena. 06.06.2003.

Historical information about the icon “The Tsaritsa”

The miraculous icon "The All-Tsarina" is located in Greece on Holy Mount Athos near the eastern column of the cathedral church of the Vatopedi monastery. Written in the 17th century, it was a blessing from the famous Elder Joseph the Hesychast on Mount Athos to his disciples. The story of the ever-memorable elder about this icon has been preserved. In the 17th century, a strange man appeared in front of the icon of the Mother of God “The Tsarina of All.” He stood there muttering something inaudibly. And suddenly the face of the Mother of God flashed like lightning, and some invisible force threw the young man to the ground. As soon as he came to his senses, he immediately went to confess to his fathers with tears in his eyes that he lived far from God, practiced magic and came to the monastery to test his strength on the holy icons. The miraculous intervention of the Mother of God convinced the young man to change his life and become pious. He was healed of mental illness and after that remained on Mount Athos. This is how this icon first showed its miraculous power on a person possessed by demons (practice in the occult always leads to possession). Later they began to notice that this icon also had a beneficial effect on patients with various malignant tumors. In the 17th century, it was first copied by a Greek monk and gradually became known throughout the world as a healer of cancer. The very name of the icon - All-Mistress, All-Mistress - speaks of its special, all-encompassing power. Having for the first time revealed her miraculous power against magical spells - and after all, sorcery, passion for magic and other occult “sciences” have spread throughout the Christian world like a cancerous tumor - the All-Tsarina has the grace to heal the most terrible of the diseases of modern humanity.

Vatopedi Monastery is a treasury Orthodox shrines, among which the most famous are the Belt of the Most Holy Theotokos and Her icon, called “The All-Tsarina” (“Pantanassa”), to which believers resort to special cases: for fatal diseases, especially cancer, conversion of lost loved ones. There are many lists of this icon all over the world. Its very name “The Tsaritsa” tells us about the greatness of the image.

The icon of the Blessed Virgin Mary was painted in the 17th century. Her iconographic type belongs to the “Panahranta” type, that is, “All-Merciful”. In the icon, the Mother of God is depicted sitting on a throne, in her hands she holds the Infant Jesus, who blesses those praying with His right hand. Around them are archangels in snow-white robes. The icon is located in the left icon case of the Vatopedi Monastery Cathedral.

In this way, the greatest Athonite ascetic, Elder Joseph the Hesychast, blessed his brethren. It is interesting that there is no mention of this icon among the old catalogs devoted to the description of icons. And “Pantanassa” came to Vatopedi thanks to a certain hermit who greatly revered this image.

The Icon of the Mother of God “The Tsaritsa” became famous for many miracles. An ancient legend, recorded and kept in the Vatopedi monastery, tells of the admonition and conversion of one young man who was engaged in sorcery.

Shocked by this phenomenon, the young man rushed to Athonite elders and repented of his sin. After this, he was able to venerate the image, forever correcting his life.

Believers received many healings after praying at the miraculous icon of the Most Holy Theotokos. The inhabitants of the monastery began to notice that the Lord had granted the gracious power to this image to heal cancer, but those suffering from this terrible illness only hope for a miracle, and by the grace of God they receive it. And as a sign of gratitude, those healed bring their small gifts to the Queen of Heaven: crosses, gold and silver jewelry. The entire icon is hung with several rows of jewelry, testifying that the Mother of God hears everyone who sincerely resorts to Her.
