To serve God and people
God gave the matron 's eyes. She was blind from birth. But given spiritual sight. She saw people's thoughts, sins, and diseases. Treated by their prayers, comforted, saved from death.
In seventeen years at the Matron's legs were paralyzed. To walk she could no longer. But people were coming to her for help, the Saint never refused.
Until the end of her life she humbly bore the cross. Never complained, never grumbled. Nothing has acquired, wandered in strange corners. Served God and people.
After the death of
Not leave them after death. Thousands of pilgrims come to the convent of the intercession. Cancer with the relics of Saint Matrona is in the left chapel of the intercession Church.
Come to pray at her grave. The body of the oxbow buried on the Danilovsky cemetery in Moscow. Take a small handful of sand, which is considered miraculous.
Pray for their health and family. Asking for help in Affairs of life. Seek advice and guidance.
Prayer to Saint Matrona
There is a prayer to the blessed eldress Matrona. Here's her short version: "the Holy and righteous Staritsa, Matrona, pray for us!"
If you do not know or have forgotten the prayer, turn to Holy soul and heart. Sincere request, she will hear always and everywhere.
In many churches is the image of the Blessed Staritsa. But to pray to her, do not have to go to the temple or to go to the monastery. This can be done at home. The main thing is to be a man of faith. Blessed always said she's not helping, and God.
You can write a note Matrona of Moscow and put it to the relics. Or send a letter to the Pokrovsky monastery by mail. The nuns will lay it for you.
Guidance of the Holy oxbow
Preserved teachings of the mother Matron. In them, she was taught to fear nothing, not to judge other people. Think about your soul. To be tolerant, to help the old and infirm.
Be sure to monitor their health and treatment. The body she has called home for the soul. And the house, thought the Matron, should be repaired. You cannot refer to a grandmother-the witches and sorcerers. They can be soul damaging.
Have meanders and instruction about prayer. The matron taught to rely on the Lord. Often to receive communion and pray. To defend the cross and Holy water. And before the icon to light the lamp.
