Icon of the Mother of God of Koloch
Russia (1143)
The Koloch Icon of the Mother of God manifested itself in the year 1413 during the reign of Basil 1, near Koloch. A peasant of this village by the name of Luke found the holy icon and took it to his home. A paralyzed member of his household put his forehead to the icon with faith and received complete healing. This cure became known, and many of the suffering began to flock to the wonderworking icon for healing. Luke afterwards took the icon to Mozhaisk, and from there to Moscow. At the capital, the icon was carried through the streets and many of the sick were healed. Later the icon returned to Mozhaisk. At the place where the icon appeared, a church was built in honor of the Mother of God, in which the holy icon was housed.
