Icon of great martyr Fedor Tiran at Svyato-Fedorovsky Cathedral in Belarus starts oozing chrism

An icon of the saint great martyr Fedor Tiran in the Orthodox Svyato-Fedorovsky Cathedral in the town of Pinsk has started flowing with chrism oil.

The Pinsk diocesan administration said that the great martyr Fedor is considered the heavenly patron of Pinsk.

About 18 months ago a recently painted icon of the saint Fedor Tiran was brought to the Svyato-Fedorovsky Cathedral of the town from a workshop of the Russian Orthodox church in the village of Sofrino. The image was put up in a room used to bake altar-bread.

When the icon began oozing the fragrant chrism, the icon was taken to the diocesan administration and then at a ceremony brought back to the Svyato-Fedorovsky Cathedral.

The icon of the saint great martyr Fedor Tiran continues to exude chrism, and the news is attracting ever more believers to the cathedral.
