Matrona of Moscow

The righteous blessed Matrona of Moscow is one of the most venerated saints of our time. Every day, thousands of people from all over Russia and different countries come to the Pokrovsky Monastery in Moscow to pray at her relics. For those who venerate Matrona of Moscow, she is undoubtedly a holy person who intercedes for them before God. Their faith in her prayers and her maternal love for every person is absolute. On the other hand, there are quite a few opponents of the canonization of Matrona of Moscow, who for various reasons categorically refuse to consider her a saint. It has so happened that most books about Matrona of Moscow are dedicated to the miracles that occurred after people turned to her for help. The biography of the saint is often not examined in detail by the authors.

Irina Ordyinskaya has tried to gather all available information about the life of Saint Matrona and has written a biography of the beloved saint of the people.
