More Than 15 Icons and Liturgical Items Streaming Myrrh in Russian Village Church

Myrrh-streaming icons are a relatively rare phenomenon in the life of the Church, by which God strengthens, comforts, and blesses His faithful.

However, one village church in the Lipetsk Province of Russia, 290 miles south of Moscow, is home to nearly 20 myrrh-streaming sacred items.

In the Church of the Archangel Michael in the village of Voron-Lozovka, 13 icons, two chalices, a Gospel book, and two crosses are all streaming Heavenly myrrh, reports donvesti.ru.

With the cross began the revival of the church on May 25, 2019. At first, the rector, Fr. Diodore, would celebrate the services holding the cross with a container under it to collect the myrrh that streamed from the cross. Now the cross is under glass, covered in myrrh.

“No one can give an explanation for these miracles,” Fr. Diodore said.

The Church didn’t do what it was told to do at Fatima, the warnings came true and Jesus then had to consecrate Russia Himself.

From what I’ve read, Russia gave herself to Satan and Satan killed her.

But then, Jesus raised her from the dead and now Russia belongs to Him.

Watching Russia from long distance both before and after the fall of the Soviet Union, I think what I’ve read is true.

Is there a specific significance attributed to the myrrh or the weeping icons?

Has there been a message delivered what it signifies or what our Father wants us to pay attention to on account of this?
