Strong prayers for mothers for children every day. Prayer for conceiving a healthy child is the most powerful

Prayers for children are requests from parents addressed to God and His saints. So, let's figure out what a prayer should be in order for it to be heard.

“Strong” prayer for children

We will begin, perhaps, with such a concept as “strong prayer for children.” Unfortunately, modern mothers and fathers, far from church life, misunderstand the meaning of prayer, equating it to a spell. For them, prayer for children is not live communication with God and His saints, but a certain set of magic words, by saying which, their child should “automatically” become happy, healthy, rich (and the list goes on). Therefore, if you are told about some kind of “strong” prayer, you need to understand that this has absolutely nothing to do with Orthodoxy. However, at the same time, maternal prayer really has incredible power! Sometimes real miracles happen through the prayers of mothers. Paradoxical, isn't it? In fact, everything is very simple... A mother’s heart, compassionate and sympathetic to her child, sincerely and repentantly praying to God, can do the impossible! Therefore, if you want your prayer for children to be strong, you need to:

- Pray with attention, and not just pronounce words like spells. Delve into the text of prayers compiled by holy and pious people, try to pass them through your heart.

— Pray with repentance, recognizing yourself as sinners because “ God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble"(1 Peter 5:5)

— Pray regularly and persistently, for Christ Himself said “ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you..."(Matthew 7:7)

- Pray to God first. Prayer to the Mother of God, saints and Guardian Angel will not replace prayer to the Creator!

- Try to lead a pious Christian life, keeping the main commandments - to love God with all your heart and to love your neighbors. And when you sin, repent. Lead also a church life: regularly confess, take communion, read the Gospel. All this brings a Christian closer to righteousness, and the Apostle James said: “ The fervent prayer of the righteous can accomplish much"! (James 5:16)

What kind of prayers are there for children?

1. Prayer in your own words (but sometimes the heart asks to pray for a long time, and we don’t have enough words to express our feelings. Then it’s very good to pray according to the prayer book - those prayers that the holy fathers have already compiled for us)
2. Prayer before a certain icon. For example, there are a huge number of icons of the Mother of God. Each of them has its own story... According to good tradition, in front of some of them they pray for children. But, you need to understand - we pray to the Mother of God IN FRONT of the icon, which sets us in a certain mood. We do not pray to the ICON itself. This is what distinguishes Orthodox prayer for children from magical spells that cause great harm to the soul!
3. Akathists. These are praises (quite long) that are prayed while standing. Any mother can choose an akathist to pray for her children. This could be an akathist to the Lord, the Mother of God, or one of the saints.

As you can see, a mother’s strong prayer is primarily spiritual work, and not a set of certain “magic” words. But let’s not be discouraged - everyone can do this work!

First prayer:

O Most Holy Lady Virgin Mary, save and keep my children under Your shelter (names), all youths, young women and infants, baptized and nameless and carried in the womb of their mother. Cover them with the robe of Your motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience to their parents, pray to my Lord and Your Son to grant them what is useful for their salvation. I entrust them to Your maternal supervision, for You are the Divine Protection of Your servants.
Mother of God, introduce me to the image of Your heavenly motherhood. Heal the mental and physical wounds of my children (names), caused by my sins. I entrust my child entirely to my Lord Jesus Christ and Your, Most Pure, heavenly protection. Amen.

Second prayer to the Mother of God for children (before the icon of the Mother of God “Education”)

In front of this image, the Mother of God prays for any needs and problems in raising children

O Most Holy Lady Virgin Theotokos, save and preserve under Your roof my children (their names), all youths, young women and infants, baptized and nameless and carried in the womb of their mother. Cover them with the robe of Your Motherhood, keep them in the fear of God and in obedience as a parent, pray to Your Son and our Lord to grant them what is useful for their salvation. I entrust them to Your mother’s supervision, for You are the Divine protection of Your servant. Amen.

Third prayer to the Mother of God for children (in front of the icon of the Mother of God “Addition of Mind” (or “Giver of Mind”))

There is a good tradition - to pray to the Mother of God in front of this image if a child has difficulties with learning

Most Pure Mother of God, the House in which the Wisdom of God was created, the Giver of spiritual gifts, raising our minds from the world to the worldly and leading everyone to the knowledge of reason! Receive prayerful singing from us, Thy unworthy servants, who bow with faith and tenderness before Thy most pure image. Pray to Thy Son and our God to grant wisdom and strength to our rulers, to judges truth and impartiality, to shepherds spiritual wisdom, zeal and vigilance for souls, to mentors humility, to children obedience, to all of us the spirit of reason and piety, the spirit of humility and meekness, the spirit purity and truth. And now, our All-Singing Mother, give us an increase in intelligence, pacify, unite those who exist in enmity and division and lay down for them an insoluble bond of love, convert all those who have gone astray from foolishness to the light of the truth of Christ, instruct the fear of God, abstinence and hard work, the word of wisdom and soul-helping knowledge Grant to those who ask, overshadow us with eternal joy, the most honorable of the Cherubim and the most glorious of the Seraphim. We, seeing the wondrous deeds and manifold wisdom of God in the world and our life, will remove ourselves from earthly vanities and unnecessary worldly cares, and will raise our minds and hearts to Heaven, as if by Your intercession and help glory, praise, thanksgiving and worship for all in the Trinity We send our praises to the glorious God and Creator of all, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Fourth prayer to the Mother of God for children (in front of the icon of the Mother of God “Consolation” (or “Consolation”))

In front of this icon, mothers ask the Mother of God for any help for their children

Hope to all the ends of the earth, the Most Pure Virgin Mary, our Consolation and Joy! Do not disdain us sinners, for we trust in Your mercy. Quench the flame of sin and water our withered hearts with repentance. Cleanse our minds from sinful thoughts. Accept prayers offered to You from your soul and heart with sighing. Be an intercessor for us to Your Son and God and turn His anger away from us with Mother’s prayers. Strengthen the Orthodox faith in us, put in us the spirit of the fear of God, the spirit of humility, patience and love. Heal mental and physical ulcers, calm the storm of evil enemy attacks. Take away the burden of our sins and do not leave us to perish until the end. Grant us Thy mercy and Thy holy blessing to all those present and praying here, and always remain with us, giving those who come to You joy and consolation, help and intercession, may we all glorify and magnify You until our last sigh. Amen.

Fifth prayer for the children of the Mother of God (before the icon of the Mother of God “Mammal”)

There is a good tradition - to turn to the Mother of God in front of this icon, including mothers who do not have enough breast milk

Accept, Lady Theotokos, the tearful prayers of Your servants who flow to You. We see You on the holy icon, carrying in your arms and feeding with milk Your Son and our God, the Lord Jesus Christ. Even if you gave birth to Him painlessly, even though the mother weighed the sorrow and infirmity of the sons and daughters of human beings. With the same warmth falling upon Thy whole-bearing image and tenderly kissing this, we pray to Thee, All-Merciful Lady: we, sinners, condemned to give birth to sickness and nourish our children in sorrow, mercifully spare and compassionately intercede, but our babies, who also gave birth to them from a serious illness and deliver from bitter sorrow. Grant them health and prosperity, and their nourishment will increase in strength, and those who feed them will be filled with joy and consolation, for even now, through Your intercession from the mouth of a baby and those who piss, the Lord will bring His praise. O Mother of the Son of God! Have mercy on the mother of the sons of men and on Your weak people: quickly heal the illnesses that befall us, quench the sorrows and sorrows that are upon us, and do not despise the tears and sighs of Your servants. Hear us on the day of sorrow who fall before Your icon, and on the day of joy and deliverance receive the grateful praise of our hearts. Offer our prayers to the throne of Your Son and our God, that He may be merciful to our sin and weakness and add His mercy to those who lead His name, so that we and our children will glorify You, the merciful Intercessor and the faithful Hope of our race, forever and ever. Amen.

Second prayer of a mother for children:

God! To the Creator of all creatures, adding mercy to mercy, You have made me worthy to be the mother of a family; Your goodness has given me children, and I dare to say: they are Your children! Because You gave them existence, revived them with an immortal soul, revived them through baptism for a life in accordance with Your will, adopted them and accepted them into the bosom of Your Church, Lord! Keep them in a state of grace until the end of their lives; grant them to be partakers of the sacraments of Your covenant; sanctify by Thy truth; may Thy holy name be sanctified in them and through them! Grant me your gracious help in educating them for the glory of Your name and the benefit of your neighbor! Give me methods, patience and strength for this purpose! Teach me to plant in their hearts the root of true wisdom - Thy fear! Illuminate them with the light of Your Wisdom that governs the universe! May they love You with all their souls and thoughts; may they cleave to You with all their hearts and throughout their entire life may they tremble at Your words! Grant me the understanding to convince them that true life consists in keeping your commandments; that work, strengthened by piety, brings serene contentment in this life and ineffable bliss in eternity. Open to them the understanding of Your Law! May they act until the end of their days in the feeling of Your omnipresence! Plant in their hearts horror and disgust from all lawlessness; let them be blameless in your ways; May they always remember that You, All-Good God, are a champion of Your law and righteousness! Keep them in chastity and reverence for Your name! Let them not discredit Your Church by their behavior, but let them live according to its instructions! Inspire them with a desire for useful teaching and make them capable of every good deed! May they acquire a true understanding of those objects whose information is necessary in their condition; may they be enlightened with knowledge beneficial to humanity. God! Manage me to impress with indelible marks on the minds and hearts of my children the fear of partnerships with those who do not know Thy fear, to instill in them every possible distance from any alliance with the lawless. Let them not listen to rotten conversations; Let them not listen to frivolous people; May they not be led astray from Your path by bad examples; May they not be tempted by the fact that sometimes the path of the wicked is successful in this world!

Heavenly Father! Grant me the grace to take every possible care to tempt my children with my actions, but, constantly bearing in mind their behavior, to distract them from errors, correct their mistakes, curb their stubbornness and obstinacy, refrain from striving for vanity and frivolity; Let them not be carried away by foolish thoughts, let them not follow their hearts, let them not become proud in their thoughts, let them not forget You and Your law. May iniquity not destroy their mind and health, may sins not weaken their mental and physical strength. Righteous Judge, who punishes children for the sins of their parents to the third and fourth generation, turn away such punishment from my children, do not punish them for my sins; but sprinkle them with the dew of Your grace, that they may prosper in virtue and holiness, that they may increase in Your favor and in the love of pious people.

Father of generosity and all mercy! According to my parental feeling, I would wish for my children every abundance of earthly blessings, I would wish them blessings from the dew of heaven and from the fatness of the earth, but may Thy holy will be with them! Arrange their fate according to Your good pleasure, do not deprive them of their daily bread in life, send down to them everything they need in time to acquire a blessed eternity, be merciful to them when they sin before You, do not impute to them the sins of their youth and ignorance, bring their hearts to contrition when they resist the guidance of Your goodness; Punish them and have mercy, directing them to the path pleasing to You, but do not reject them from Your presence! Accept their prayers with favor, grant them success in every good deed; do not turn Your face away from them in the days of their tribulation, lest temptations befall them beyond their strength. Overshadow them with Your mercy, may Your Angel walk with them and protect them from all misfortune and evil paths, All-Good God! Make me a mother who rejoices over her children, so that they will be my joy in the days of my life and my support in my old age. Honor me, with trust in Your mercy, to appear with them at Your Last Judgment and with unworthy boldness to say: Here I am and my children whom You gave me, Lord! Yes, together with them glorifying Your ineffable goodness and eternal love, I extol Your Most Holy Name, Father, Son and Holy Soul, forever and ever. Amen.

The power of a mother's prayer

A mother’s heart “hurts” because of childhood problems, even when the child grows up and is somewhere far away. The Almighty and His saints do not remain indifferent when loving mothers ask them for help.

A mother's prayer for a sick child saves even when doctors are powerless to help.

A mother's faith is a great strength! Her appeal to the Heavenly Powers will bless her daughter for a successful marriage and help in difficult childbirth. She is able to hide her son from enemies and human deception, and will save him from demonic intrigues.

A mother who prays for her children in the morning protects them from harm throughout the day, and a prayer before bedtime will take away night fears from her beloved child and will contribute to a calm, sweet sleep.

The key to a child's success is a mother's blessing. Whatever activities are planned for the day by the child, with blessing they will all go smoothly and successfully.

Heavenly patrons of children

In case of all sorts of troubles and misfortunes, it is customary to ask for intercession from the Heavenly Patrons.

The main thing is to understand the importance of the problem and know which one is best to contact.

The Mother of God will save you from bodily illnesses.

It is She who is famous for her miraculous healings of illnesses. It is recommended to place Her Holy Face over a child’s bed in order to quickly get rid of illness. It is the Queen of Heaven who will contemplate every minute on the sick child and intercede for him before Her Son.

Martyr Tryphon will help a sick child if, due to a serious illness, he finds himself in a hospital bed.

It is necessary to contact him before the upcoming surgical intervention. A sick child, under the patronage of the saint, will easily undergo the operation and recover quickly.

The Savior Not Made by Hands will save the child from addiction, bring him to reason, and discourage him from the bad influence of his troubled friends.

The Creator will guide him on the right path and enlighten the child who has forgotten about respect for elders.

Praying to the Guardian Angel will be useful for the protection of the child in his daily worries; it is he who will constantly patronize the child.

After all, from the Sacrament of Holy Baptism to the ascension to the Heavenly Abode, it is the guardian angel who leads the soul to salvation, protects from temptations and directs on the right path.

1. Nicholas the Wonderworker, through a fiery mother’s prayer, will protect the child on a long journey, be it a hike, a journey, or military service.
2. Elder Matrona of Moscow will help in healing from viral diseases, cure colds, and avert frequent attacks of seizures in infants.
3. For the safety of your son, it is necessary to offer a prayer to St. George the Victorious. It is he who takes care of the safety of boys, young men, men.
4. Ksenia of Petersburg, a holy fool for Christ's sake, will help children suffering from mental disabilities or physical disabilities. She will certainly calm the sufferers and ease their lot.
5. The saint in whose name the child is baptized will look after the child named in his honor all his life.

When starting prayer work, every prayer worker dreams of an instant result. But this happens very rarely. The Lord knows everything about the need of each person and decides what he really needs.

Many people who are weak in faith think that the Creator simply does not hear their prayers. But this is far from true. An ordinary layman is not able to fully understand and correctly interpret the situation that developed at a certain time.

In the family, the mother and father must, by their own example, instill in the child faith and love for Christ. Parents are obliged to show their children what is truth and what is sin. Children should also learn prayer from their parents.

Important! Parental prayer and blessing are the strongest amulet. By blessing her children, the mother seems to nourish the growing soul with the Holy Spirit. And then your beloved child will illuminate life with happy smiles, strength of faith and high achievements.

Words of prayer addressed to the Queen of Heaven have great power precisely because such a prayer is an appeal to the mother, the Mother of God.

The Virgin Mary is the most revered person, the greatest of Christian saints, because she is the earthly mother of Jesus Christ - the Son of God. According to legend, Mary (the only woman mentioned in the Koran) gave birth to her child Jesus in a miraculous way - being virginally pure. People believe that conception came from the Holy Spirit.

As the mother of the Son of God, the Mother of God is prayed for children:

• about children's health;
• about their prosperous life;
• about giving children the grace of the Lord;
• about successful studies, etc.

The incredible power of maternal prayer helps every person throughout their life. Being a mother is a great happiness, but also hard work. That is why the prayers of mothers for children occupy a special position in the Orthodox church world.

Prayer for a son - maternal prayer for protection

It has always been believed that a mother should read a prayer book and ask the Lord God to grant blessed grace for her child. Strong prayer has properties not only in the fight against illnesses, but can also protect a child from someone else’s negative influence, help solve any problem, or relieve worries and worries.

A Christian prayer for a son, heard from the lips of a mother, always helps to fulfill what is asked for.

A mother, starting from the day of birth of her child, lives with his joys and sorrows, his smiles and tears, his breath. There is no more selfless and brighter love than the love of a mother for her child. That is why there are whole legends about the great power of mother’s prayer for children. The Lord Almighty did not leave a single prayer for help uttered by the mother without his participation.

Prayers for a son date back to ancient times, they were very widely used during wars between states, when a mother sent her son to war, she always asked the Lord for a good share for her boy and a quick return.

“Sweet Jesus, God of my heart! You gave me children according to the flesh, they are Yours according to the soul; You redeemed both my soul and theirs with your priceless blood; For the sake of Your Divine blood, I beg You, my sweetest Savior, with Your grace touch the hearts of my children (names) and my godchildren (names), protect them with Your Divine fear; keep them from bad inclinations and habits, guide them to the bright path of life, truth and goodness.

Decorate their lives with everything good and saving, arrange their fate as You yourself want and save their souls with their own destinies! Lord, God of our Fathers! Give to my children (names) and godchildren (names) a right heart to keep Your commandments, Your revelations and Your statutes. And do it all! Amen".

Prayer for a daughter - a mother's prayer with special power

There are even more appeals to the Almighty about the well-being of daughters than about sons. My daughter is my mother’s tender flower. Mothers treat the birth and upbringing of daughters with special trepidation, because a son is a protector, a man, and a daughter herself requires protection.

A very pressing topic for parents is their daughter’s marriage. That is why, for a long time, mothers turned to the Lord asking for a happy life for their child, for well-being in the future family, for mutual understanding between loving hearts.

A special place among petitions for a daughter is occupied by a prayer for pregnancy. They say that when a girl cannot get pregnant, it is very important that her mother:

• She asked the holy images in the Orthodox Christian church for pregnancy and easy childbirth.
• She lit a candle for the health of her daughter, for the well-being of her family and for the birth of a child, took holy water from the church, and the daughter must drink this water and, in turn, light a candle for the health of her mother. The Lord hears such appeals and in most cases helps.
• A girl becomes a mother and already worries about her child, as her mother worried about her: she asks for his health, well-being, for the indulgence of God’s grace, for successful studies, for marriage and the birth of children.

This cycle accompanies everyone throughout their lives.

A mother's prayer for her child

Every mother worries, wishes health, a happy life and a bumpy road in life for her child. After all, being a mother means not only giving birth and raising a child, but also doing everything, making every possible effort so that his life turns out in the best possible way, and prayer in this difficult task is the best helper.

“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, prayers for the sake of Thy Most Pure Mother, hear me, Thy sinful and unworthy servant (name). Lord, in the mercy of Thy power, my child (name), have mercy and save him for Thy name’s sake.

Lord, forgive him all the sins, voluntary and involuntary, committed by him before You. Lord, guide him on the true path of Your commandments and enlighten him with Your light of Christ, for the salvation of the soul and the healing of the body. Lord, bless him in the house, near the house , in the field, at work and on the road, and in every place of Your possession.

Lord, protect him under the protection of Your Saints from a flying bullet, arrow, knife, sword, poison, fire, flood, from a deadly plague and from vain death. Lord, protect him from visible and invisible enemies, from all troubles, evils and misfortunes. Lord, heal him from all diseases, cleanse him from all filth (wine, tobacco, drugs) and ease his mental suffering and sorrow.

Lord, grant him the grace of the Holy Spirit for many years of life and health, chastity. Lord, give him Your blessing for a pious family life and pious childbearing. Lord, grant me, Thy unworthy and sinful servant, a parental blessing for my child in the coming mornings , days, evenings and nights, for the sake of Your name, for Your Kingdom is eternal, omnipotent and omnipotent. Amen. Lord, have mercy (12 times).”

It is important not to be afraid to turn to the Almighty for help, he will hear everyone! God will help everyone - he will point out the right path in life, heal the sick, comfort the grieving, and will not leave the needy in trouble.

God bless you!

A mother's powerful prayer for her children

For a believing woman, motherhood has a slightly different meaning. A Christian mother is called to raise children in moral purity and teach them about God. Also, for Orthodox parents, it is normal for the mother and father to pray for their children. For them, it is like an invisible shield that can protect them from various troubles. Let's look at the most powerful prayers of mothers for their children.

Attitude towards motherhood

God has care for every soul. He intends for everyone, without exception, his own special path. Therefore, parents should not impose their own preferences on their child. They should respect the small personality from the very beginning. Their main task is to take care of morality and instill useful skills. They are necessary in order to keep the soul from evil when a small person becomes big.

When going to church, parents should take their children with them. Raising a worthy Christian is much more important than all other concerns. It doesn’t matter who the child becomes - what matters is his inner life. A prerequisite for this is the mother’s prayer for the children - it must be constant. Many holy fathers insist on this.

Mother's prayer for a child

“Lord Jesus Christ, awaken Thy mercy on my child (name), keep him under Thy roof, cover him from all evil lust, drive away from them every enemy and adversary, open his ears and the eyes of his heart, grant tenderness and humility to their hearts. Lord, we are all Your creation, have pity on my child (name) and turn him to repentance. Save, O Lord, and have mercy on my child (name), and enlighten his mind with the light of the mind of Your Gospel, and guide him on the path of Your commandments, and teach him, O Savior, to do Your will, for You are our God.”

Mother's prayer if children are sick

“O Most Merciful God, Father, Son and Holy Soul, worshiped and glorified in the Undivided Trinity, look upon Thy servant (her) (name of the child) who is overcome by illness; forgive him (her) all his (her) sins; grant him (her) healing from illness; return him (her) health and bodily strength; Give him (her) a long and prosperous life, Your peaceful and most worldly blessings, so that he (she) together with us brings grateful prayers to You, the All-Bounteous God and my Creator. Most Holy Theotokos, through Your omnipotent intercession, help me to beg Your Son, my God, for the healing of God’s servant (name). All saints and Angels of the Lord, pray to God for His sick (sick) servant (name). Amen."

Heavenly Father

God does not send children in vain. Parents are given power over them, as is repeatedly stated in the Holy Scriptures; even one of the commandments commands to honor father and mother. But they should not abuse their influence and demand obedience no matter what. Father and mother must themselves be accountable to their common Father, the Lord.

Children see everything perfectly well, so you cannot demand from them what is not fulfilled by the elders in the family. A smoking father cannot demand that his son quit smoking. Because his behavior speaks of neglect of his duties to build a temple of God from the body.

Model of an Orthodox mother

Going to church and Sunday school is wonderful. But a child, as the closest person, even if small, is capable of perceiving the smallest movements of the soul. And the mother’s heart should be for him a window into the kingdom of heaven. Through her spiritual world, he begins to build his own. A pious mother teaches her child from an early age:

• make the sign of the cross,
• venerate icons
• pray briefly.

It is such a mother who will have very strong prayers for her children. History knows examples of how requests to God saved lives and pulled people out from the very bottom of the moral abyss. Christians owe this to the special relationship of Christ to His earthly Mother.

Cross of the Virgin Mary

When people remember Saint Mary, they think about the honor God showed her. But does it often occur to anyone how difficult it was for her as a woman? To endure, to give birth to a Son, and then to give him up to be torn to pieces, to watch the torment and death of your only child? This is who you need to ask for patience when it seems that your strength is running out.

• ask them for health;
• assistance in studies;
• maintaining moral purity.

In such cases, the holy fathers do not limit the frequency of prayers - after all, the heart cannot be commanded to love less. Namely, love and worries about the eternal fate of their soulmate motivate mothers to perform feats of prayer.

In Christianity, family is highly valued; the relationship between parents and children is an important part of education. Orthodox fathers wrote many special prayers that a mother should read for her children.

Christian Parenting

• Give communion to children regularly.
• At home, read prayers out loud, the Holy Scriptures - even if the baby does not understand the words, they will still have their beneficial effect.
• On an empty stomach, give holy water, a piece of blessed bread or prosphora.
• Bring the baby for blessing in the temple, apply it to the Cross.

You just shouldn’t make the mistake of putting into the child’s mind the image of a formidable God who seeks to punish for the slightest offense. This will not cause love, but rather disappointment and longing for the Creator, Who loves and forgives.

Children of primary school age are able to perceive the Gospel texts naturally. They are surprised not so much by miracles as by the behavior of Christ, His love and self-sacrifice.

You should not force small children to cram prayers. It is better to explain that God hears everything, and in the morning you need to say hello to Him, in the evening you need to say goodbye. Let the child turn to Jesus in his own words, over time he will learn church texts. The main thing here is not to discourage the desire to understand this issue.

For kids, this miracle becomes a fairy tale. Moreover, the children grow up, but the Wonderworker remains.

The Saint's childhood

The Great Saint was born in the city of Patar into a pious Christian family.

Nativity of the Saint - icon

His parents were wealthy and God-fearing people who had no children for a long time. In old age, after many tearful prayers, alms and a vow to dedicate the future heir to serving God, the Lord honored them with great mercy and gave them a son. The boy was named Nikolai - “victor of nations.”

From an early age, the Holy Scripture became his favorite reference book. He was “on fire with his soul” for God, which was noticed by his uncle, Bishop John of Patara. He elevated his grown-up nephew to reader, then to deacon, and a little later the young man became a cleric.

Serving Christ

The congregation was amazed at the wise sermons of the young man and respected him. After the death of his high-ranking uncle, the archbishop, he was elected bishop of Myra. But despite his high rank, the Saint remained a model of meekness, humility, mercy, respect and love.

During the Diocletian persecution of the church, the Saint of Christ, along with many Christians, was thrown into prison, where he spent many years. But while in prison, he did not stop preaching Christ among prisoners, helping his cellmates endure hardships and hardships, hunger and cold, torture and pain.

After Constantine the Great came to reign, the prisoners were granted freedom and the Wonderworker returned to his beloved Believers.

Read about Saint Nicholas:

All his life the Saint was merciful. He gave the rich inheritance left to him after the death of his parents to those in need, and constantly gave gifts to poor families.

How to correctly pray for children to the great Saint
