The icon of the Archangel Michael was pacified in the penal colony

In the Kaluga region, in the church in the name of St. Anastasia Uzorezresitelitsa, located on the territory of Medyn penal colony No. 4 of strict regime, the icon of the Archangel Michael, the Archangel of all ethereal Heavenly Forces, began to stream myrrh. The information portal Each for another online informed about the miraculous phenomenon with reference to the press service of the regional Federal Penitentiary Service.

As the rector of the church on the territory of the correctional institution said, the holy image began to stream myrrh a week ago. The condemned, who visit the temple every day, say that since then the myrrh flow has not stopped for a day. More and more drops of oily moisture appear on the icon - myrrh.
The temple on the territory of the Medyn colony was consecrated seven years ago. Five years later, the icon of the Archangel Michael was transferred here, which now streams myrrh - it was brought from the territory of the Kursk region. There is no universal answer to the question of why icons stream myrrh. This miraculous phenomenon can be considered a manifestation of the special mercy of God, or, on the contrary, it can call for increased repentance.
