ROC: more than 80 thousand believers were added to the relics of Spiridon in Moscow

Approximately 80-90 thousand believers venerated the relics of St. Spyridon of Trimifunt in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. This assessment was led by the Chairman of the information Commission of the Moscow diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church Alexander Volkov, reports TASS.

The hand of St. Spyridon of Trimifunt was brought to Moscow from the Greek island of Corfu. This saint is the heavenly patron of livestock and peasant labor, and is also believed to help solve the housing problem and financial problems. According to tradition, the relics of Spiridon of Trimifunt wear red velvet shoes. During the year, scuffles appear on it - this is considered a sign that the saint continues to walk around the world and help believers. On September 15, about 10,000 people stood in line for the relics. You can take a place in the queue to the relics until September 19 from 8:00 to 20:00 MSK and September 20 from 8:00 to 14:00.
