Holy Mother of God, chase Putin away!
Holy Mother of God, chase Putin away!
The Kiev-Bratsk Icon of the Mother of God was at first in the church of Sts Boris and Gleb in the city of Vyshgorod (Kiev), where it miraculously appeared in the year 1654. In 1662, when Russia was at war with Poland (1659-1667), the city was dealt heavy losses by the Crimean Tatars fighting on the side of the Polish. The temple of the holy Passion-Bearers Boris and Gleb was destroyed and defiled. But the Providence of God preserved the holy wonderworking icon of the Mother of God, which was taken out of the church beforehand and set off along the Dniepr. The relics of the saints were hidden beneath a crypt.The river carried the icon to the Podol section of Kiev, where it was joyfully taken up by the Orthodox and with due reverence transferred to the Bratsk (Brotherhood) monastery.
Our Lady, save the Ukrainian nation, destroy the seed of communism in Russia and bring those who work in the interest of the restoration of the Soviet Union to repentance.
Inn the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen.
Our Lady of Blachernae, O Miracle Worker, as you saved the Eastern Roman Empire from peril, so save now Kiev, the Mother of all Cities of Russia, from the red menace.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, protect the newborn Ukrainain nation against the Neo-Soviet horde, and bless her and stay with her forever.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
