Note to Matrona of Moscow. How to write correctly

At the beginning of the letter, you should address the saint of God. And then state the petitions in your own words. It will roughly look like this:

“Holy servant of God, blessed Matronushka! I ask you with all my heart, intercede for me before the Lord! Ask Him for help in my life situation.” Next we write requests.

Concluding the letter, thank Mother for her participation. After all, she must intercede before God. For in the Akathist we read: “Rejoice, for all those who call upon you, intercessor.” Whether the Lord deigns to provide His help is another matter. Perhaps our requests are not saving for our immortal soul.

Write letters in your own words that are on your heart. After all, the note to Matrona of Moscow is your cordial conversation with her. Talk to Mother, share your experiences, ask for intercession. And it will become much easier for you! You will have hope that your requests will be fulfilled!

After sending the note, be sure to pray to the Lord God and Saint Matrona. And remember that it is not the blessed Matronushka who helps us, but the Merciful Lord through her fervent prayer!

History of the foundation of the Intercession Monastery

Before the construction of the monastery, a Poor House was built here, on a deserted field where forts against the Tatars and Lithuanians had previously been located. The corpses of those who did not live according to the canons of the church, but who spent their entire lives trying to violate them (thieves, murderers, blasphemers, etc.), were brought here. In May 1606, the body of False Dmitry was brought to the Pokrovsky Poor House, which aroused great natural unrest and dark signs in these places.

The people began to worry, it was decided to burn the corpse and scatter the ashes to where the damned “sorcerer” Otrepiev came from. After some time, the remains of the martyr Demetrius, for whom False Dmitry pretended to be, were transferred to the capital from Uglich.

• The founder of the Pokrovsky Monastery, which replaced the Poor House, is Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich. A special motive for its creation was the procession of the cross held in honor of the Feast of the Intercession of the Virgin Mary. Another motivation was the king’s desire to honor the memory of his father and grandfather. In 1635 he granted his own lands for construction. After 20 years, the king gave six dessiatines from the Simonovsky Monastery to the new monastery.
• The first abbot of the monastery was the Monk Stefan, whose name is mentioned in the inscription of the altar cross and the letter of Alexy Mikhailovich. The monastery had a stone cathedral and a single-domed church, built in honor of the Intercession of the Virgin Mary. On the territory there were fraternal cells and a seminary, where meals and monastic services were held. The entire complex was surrounded by a stone fence with five towers.
• During the reign of Peter the Great, the financial condition of the Intercession Monastery was limited, the number of monks decreased significantly, and the buildings fell into disrepair. Life in the monastery was supported only by rich and pious landowners. The main church and cathedral were dismantled.
• The work of restoration was taken up by the Christian zealot Elder John, whose meek disposition attracted wealthy people to the resurrection of the Intercession Monastery.

• After the burning of Moscow in 1812, the abbot advocated another reconstruction. Two years later, the newly built buildings were consecrated by Archbishop Augustine. After the events of 1812, services were resumed in the monastery, and a large bell was poured out. After the death of the Monk Jonah, the position of rector was given to Father Ambrose, who took care of the appearance and correct order of rites. During his leadership, the Intercession Monastery flourished.

The fate of the monastery to the present day

In 1870, the church complex led by St. Innocent received missionary status. Here they trained monks who were supposed to carry the teachings of Christ in cold and distant Siberia. After 23 years, a Sunday school for boys was opened on the territory of the monastery, as well as a hotel for visiting missionaries.

• Seven monks of the Intercession Monastery went to the front during the First World War to serve as shepherds. In 1917, the church complex was a real center of spiritual education for the local population. During the years of Soviet power, monks were infringed on their rights, and the buildings were used for various purposes. It was supposed to create a concentration camp on the territory, but this was not destined to come true. The monastery was finally closed in 1928.
• The revival of the Intercession church complex took place in 1995. Patriarch Alexy II blessed the establishment of a stauropegic convent here, the first abbess of which was Feofania. Soon the charter was officially approved, and in October a religious procession was held after the solemn liturgy. In 1996, the Moscow government transferred the buildings of churches, chapels and bell towers to the Intercession Monastery for indefinite management.

Memorial Days

On May 2, 1999, Matrona of Moscow was canonized as a locally revered saint of the Moscow diocese. In October 2004, a church-wide canonization took place.

On March 8, 1998, at the direction of Alexy II, the relics of Matrona were transferred from the Danilovsky cemetery to the Intercession Monastery. There is a silver shrine with the relics of the holy blessed mother. Believers from Russia and other countries flock daily to venerate the saint.

The days of remembrance established by the church are May 2, March 8 and November 22.
