Olesya
Dear fellow prayer warriors! I have been praying together with Bolgar for two years now, daily, with Akathists to the saints and to our Heavenly Mother, even when there is no special need. During this time, I have come to realize that living with prayer is an entirely different dimension and a completely new way of experiencing oneself in this world. I am grateful to Father Vladimir for his sermons and for everything he has given and continues to give to people—it is worth more than any earthly riches. The desire to live with God—there is...

Hello. I want to share how the Mother of God helped us through prayer. My son started attending kindergarten; he is almost two years old. He cried a lot when I left him with the teachers. I could hear him calling "Mama," and my heart was breaking. I began to ask the Mother of God for help, and little by little, my son calmed down. Glory to God for everything!

A prayerful protection over our children through the prayers of the Mother of God and the saints! I have been praying Akathists by agreement prayer for several years now. I have counted 11 Akathists so far. I deeply love the sermons of Father Vladimir Golovin—they are my spiritual nourishment. Indeed, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." Love covers everything. I am very grateful to "Spiritual Lighthouse." I always turn it on and pray together with you. I want to testify that through prayer by agreement, God truly...

Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ! When my son was 2.6 years old, he was diagnosed with autism. At that time, I was taking him to kindergarten and working there. Every day, my soul was torn apart with pain when I saw him among other children. I didn’t want to live—my depression and apathy were overwhelming. And I don’t know if I would have survived at all if not for prayer! My husband and I prayed a lot for our son, we went through so much, it was incredibly difficult, but we endured everything with God's help, through the prayers of the Mother...

Hello! I want to share with you a miracle that happened to me yesterday after praying the Akathist to the Protection of the Mother of God! My lower back was in severe pain whenever I walked, bent over, or sat down. At 8:00 PM on Sunday, I prayed the Akathist (asking the Mother of God to protect me from my visible and invisible enemies). After the Akathist, I was suddenly overwhelmed by intense anger—I became very irritable. Then I locked myself in a room and began to mentally turn to God and the Mother of God, speaking to them about my...

I have been praying for my children with the Akathist to the Protection of the Mother of God for a very long time. A few days ago, my child developed a fever, and we were supposed to leave for a sanatorium soon—how could we go with a fever? On Sunday evening, I prayed the Akathist and asked the Mother of God in my own words to bring the fever down if it was God's will. And just a few hours later, when my child went to bed, the fever was gone! Thank you, Most Holy Theotokos!

Hello. I want to share a story about the help of the Mother of God. I prayed the Akathist to the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos for my son, asking that he would not be mistreated and that he would be able to stand up for himself. I also prayed that he would find good friends. As soon as I started praying, he immediately found a friend with whom he now plays, and once they even defended themselves together. I believe that everything will continue to improve. Now I feel more or less at peace about my son and truly hope that things will...

I haven’t been praying in unity for very long—just a couple of months ago, I submitted names for commemoration during the Akathist to the Protection of the Mother of God. My heart strongly felt that I needed to pray for my three daughters. Not much time passed when my youngest daughter (she’s only two years old) found some kind of cable—with metal rods on both ends—and stuck it into an electrical outlet. I heard a loud pop and had no idea what to think. I rushed into the kitchen—her little hands were covered in soot, and she suddenly burst...

A few months ago, I began praying for my little one (he's almost three years old) because his bad behavior had become very difficult to handle... This is also known as the "three-year-old crisis." The child often screamed, cried, contradicted everything, and said hurtful things. In short, things became so overwhelming that only the Lord could help. I submitted his name for commemoration during the Akathist to the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos, and the very next day—before I even had a chance to pray once—the Lord showed me a true...
