The Myrrh-Streaming \u201cSoftening of Evil Hearts\u201d Icon of the Mother of God from Russia will visit Australia from Tuesday the 8th of December for about three weeks.<\/p>\n
Since this icon from the Bogolubsky Cathedral in Pushkino began streaming myrrh thousands of faithful have venerated it. The Rector of the Bogolubsky Cathedral remarks that: \u201cAll who pray before the Icon will feel a softening of the heart… If you pray for your enemies before it, their hostile thoughts will depart, leaving in their place a feeling of mercy.\u201d Parishioners in Pushkino have witnessed not only cures from evil and envy, but healing of the body as well.<\/p>\n
The icon originally began to stream myrrh in a Moscow apartment when, in 1998, this otherwise regular image was placed on the relics of St. Matrona of Moscow.\u00a0 Myrrh also streamed very strongly from the icon at the Local Council of Bishops in 2009, during the election of Patriarch Kyrill of Moscow and All Russia.<\/p>\n
