About the icon:
The Great Kiev Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir the Red Sun, the Baptizer of Rus\' — commemorated on July 15 (28), 2024.It is unlikely that there is a name more significant in Russian history than the name of the Kiev Prince Vladimir the Saint, the Baptizer of Rus\'. Even the ancient Russian scribes called him Equal-to-the-Apostles, for the feat of Prince Vladimir is quite commensurate with the apostolic one: the great country, Rus\', was illuminated by the light of the Christian faith through his efforts.The Baptist was, first of all, a wise statesman, so people pray before it for:
Deliverance of Russia from external and internal enemies;Strengthening of faith;Peace within the country and beyond its borders.In addition, the icon of Saint Prince Vladimir will help in getting rid of eye diseases — after all, as is known, being a pagan, the prince went blind. And baptism became for him not only a spiritual, but also a physical epiphany.
