At the first opportunity gilded robe was made. Another precious chasuble with stones was donated by Tsar Nicholas II with the glorification of St. Seraphim. Nimbus on this chasuble was made in the form of divergent rays shine, consisting of precious stones and pearls. With icons set of lists was done, some of them have also become miraculous.
Now the icon of the Mother of Tenderness, which belonged to my father Seraphim, is the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia. Once a year - in the feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary Praise - it imposed on public worship in the Patriarchal Epiphany Cathedral in Moscow.
Virgin on this icon displayed in the semi-rank, with crosswise arms folded, without the Child, with his head bowed and his eyes half closed, at the time of pronouncing the word she Archangel Gabriel at the Annunciation: Behold the handmaid of the Lord, wake E on your verb.
