The Molchenskaya Icon, Busynovo, Russia
Commemorated on May 7
The miraculous copy of the Molchenskaya Icon was found in the village of Busynovo, near Moscow. According to tradition, in the 17th Century, a blind girl who lived in the village of Busynovo found this Icon and brought it to the church.
An account by Maria Sporysheva, a parishioner of that church and long time resident.
In the 17th Century, a blind maiden lived in the village of Busynovo, in a house on the right bank of Busynka River. It happened that in a dream, the Mother of God appeared to her and told her: “Go along the right side of the river, against the current, and stand at the spot I tell you to, and you will find my Icon. The girl related everything to her mother. The next day, they went together about half a kilometer along the river. About 100 meters from the bank, the spot was revealed to them. After excavating some earth, they found a spring. Following the instructions of the Mother of God, the girl washed her eyes with water from that spring, and received her sight. The next day, the Mother of God again appeared to the maiden. She said, “Continue what you began; there is but a little more to do.” The next day, after some more excavation, the miraculous Molchenskaya Icon of the Mother of God was found. According to tradition, it is this very Icon that is currently in the Church of St. Sergius of Radonezh in Busynovo. Soon, a chapel was erected on the site where the Icon had appeared. They dug a well 1½ meters deep, and installed a concrete liner. From all over Russia, the lame, crippled, and sick would come to the chapel, and through God’s mercy, many miracles took place.
The chapel survived until 1936, in the Soviet era. At the same time that the Church of St. Sergius was closed down, the chapel was destroyed. All of the candles, icons, and church utensils were thrown down into the well, and the well was filled in with earth. The miraculous Icon was handed over to the Church of the Sign Icon of the Mother of God in Aksynino.
In 1950, Maria Sporysheva and a companion were able to re-excavate and restore the well, as the location of the holy spring was known. Once again, believers would flock to the well and receive healing. Maria took care of the well until 1970, when the village of Busynovo was razed and replaced by a pipe-manufacturing complex. However, after the opening of a church in 1991, the Holy Icon once again returned to its home. For the first time in many years, a Moleben and Akathist to the Molchenskaya Icon of the Mother of God were served on December 1, 1996.
