ooh Boris Polevoy 32 A, Divnogorsk, Russia

Description:

The temple of the icon of the Sign of the Abalatsk Mother of God in Divnogorsk was founded on August 9, 1888 on the lands allocated by the order of Tsar Alexander III. In November 1889, from the Assumption Monastery, the temple icon The Sign of the Abalatsk Mother of God was brought here. Soon the first Divine Liturgy was celebrated here. In 1894, under the abbot Filaret, a chapel was erected in the temple in honor of the Wonderworker Nicholas.

In 1909, there were about 60 people here, not counting pilgrims. The monastery was visited by 5,000 pilgrims a year. Residents of Zeledevo volost appealed to the diocesan authorities with a request to conduct cross processions in the villages with the icon of the Sign of the Mother of God of Abalatsk. In 1908, the Holy Governing Synod recognized it as miraculous. The infrastructure of the temple included workshops, brick and tar plants, a fishing area and an apiary.

The monastery is currently operating. Its main shrines are the icon with a particle of the relics of Seraphim of Sarov, the icon with a particle of the relics of the warrior Theodore, the icon with a particle of the relics of the Archbishop of Krasnoyarsk, and the Ark with particles of the relics of the Fathers of Kiev-Pechersk.
