Miracle of the Penza region
 

Friend-Samara photographer Vyacheslav Dorofeev found in one village of the Penza region that's such a miracle.
Church of the Nativity, illuminated and began operations in 1720-ies. (!!!)
Not a day has not been closed, with the Soviets, the entire village stood up in front of the temple and have contributed nothing to do with him.
In the church itself with all of those times, until the iron floor slabs. All utensils, all painted with the times.
But most importantly, the iconostasis!
Baroque, one of the first in Russia, apparently, and survived.
Local legend, so some of the guilty Italian St. Petersburg was a local landowner "redeemed" from the prison, and for it came to build and make the iconostasis.
Photos are many, but most now work for the calendar and album.
Sam photographer tomorrow I will tell you more.

This is part of the iconostasis.

But the main sanctuary of the temple, the miraculous icon of Athos letter. Ibid Athos specially written for the church, brought in the church were fixation of miracles and she ecclesiastical leadership (Synod, apparently) officially recognized the miraculous.
Her photos are not available, there is permission given to its discovery and excavation of Kyoto, there's a long story, it's all jewelry, medals, gold, hung with the grateful healing in the church and made contributions to this icon-all this is somehow attached.

Here are people, good fellows!
Preserved for posterity.
The light of memory!

Two photos.
