Before the icon of the Mother of God of the Three Hands the Orthodox pray for healing of the feet, hands, eyes and body. The history of this miraculous icon tells us how the wonderful church man John of Damascus suffered torment in defending the true Christian faith from the heretical iconoclasts. The then Byzantine emperor Leo III of Isaur ordered the St. John to cut off the right hand and hang it on the market for public viewing. Only at the end of the day did Saint John ask the evil emperor to give his hand. Having attached the severed hand to his hand, the saint of God began to pray with tears to the Mother of God before her icon of healing. In the morning, he fell asleep from exhaustion and, waking up after a while, saw that his hand was healthy and the brush seemed not to have been cut off.
Filled with joy and gratitude to the Queen of Heaven for the miraculous healing, he poured a piece of pure silver out of pure silver and put it to the icon. From this icon was called Troeruchitsa. Since that time, Christians have asked the Queen of Heaven for this miraculous way of healing the feeble flesh and intercession. Having presented this icon to your relatives or friends, you will do a good deed, enabling them to join the gracious power of our heavenly Patroness.
