Currently, the relics of the holy saint of God are in Moscow. And they will be there until October 15th. If anyone has the desire and opportunity, be sure to bow to them. Ask St. Spyridon of Trimifuntsky for help.
You don't know what to ask? It doesn't matter, we will talk about it in the article. Is there a strong prayer to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky? Alas, there is none. All power is in ourselves. As we ask, so we receive. Let's not beat around the bush. Let's start our story.
What does a saint help with?
We are used to the fact that you can not ask the saints for material goods. For example, more money, an apartment or a car. Is it true?
There is one saint who is asked for financial help and everything related to material we alth. Prayers to the miracle worker of Trimifunt fly and fly to him. Just before asking for material prosperity, you should answer the question: why do I need this?
Agree, there is a difference if a father with many children working at a factoryask the saint to expand the living space. They huddle with three or four children in a two-room apartment, at best. And then some businessman who earns money in a not entirely honest way and has five apartments will offer his prayers. Although, hardly dishonest businessmen go to the temple and pray to God, or turn to saints.
In general, before offering a prayer to the Trimifunt miracle worker, separate the "wheat from the chaff". Does need really make you ask for material things, or is it a thirst for indefatigable we alth.
The material requests are sorted out. What else do they ask for Spiridon of Trimifuntsky? About spiritual blessings. This may be a request for the healing of an illness of one's own or a loved one. Have something to ask? Contact the miracle worker.
Who is he?
Is there a prayer to Spiridon of Trimifuntsky about money, material and spiritual well-being? We will talk about this a little later. And we will present prayer texts. And now let's talk about who the great miracle worker was. To turn to a saint for help without knowing anything about him is somehow not good. Especially if there is an opportunity to find out the details of life, why not do it.
So, the future saint was born at the end of the 3rd century. His birthplace is Cyprus, a village located near Trimphunt. Already in childhood, Spiridon knew what work was. He was a shepherd. He was distinguished not only by diligence, but also by zeal for God. He led a charitable life: meek, kind, he accepted wanderers, was distinguished by love for the people around him.
We offer prayers to the Trimifunt miracle worker for money. And he, by the way, did not have any we alth. And despite his low income, Spiridon shared his home and food with those in need. People were drawn to a kind person, his warmth and extraordinary kindness were enough for everyone.
Time passed, the old Bishop of Trimifuntsky died. And Saint Spyridon was chosen as the first priest of the city. But even with such a high spiritual dignity, he remained simple and not arrogant. He worked, continuing to earn his living.
God rewarded his saint with many gifts. Among them are insight, and the ability to heal, and even the resurrection of the dead. We will talk about this below. Saint Spyridon of Trimifun lived a long and pious life. Died at an advanced age. The relics of the saint of God are on the island of Corfu.
How to pray to a miracle worker?
What is the prayer to Spiridon Trimifuntsky for help? Sincere, first of all. It's not a joke. Concentrated, sincere prayer from the heart is unlikely to go unanswered.
How would you like to pray? If at home, it would be nice to get an icon of the saint and an akathist. What icon? Yes, any size, it doesn't matter. It can be bought at any church shop, as well as an akathist.
If it is possible to offer a prayer to the Trimifunt miracle worker in the temple, then order a prayer service. Buy a candle, put it in front of the icon of the saint. Just do not think that a candle is a kind of "guarantor" of help. No, this is our sacrifice. Minimum, shall we say. Stand in front of the image of St. Spyridon Trimifuntsky, pray with concentration and ask for help. In the case when a prayer service was ordered, it would not be superfluous to stay in attendance. Now many people do this: they order prayers, and they themselves leave them. First of all, you need help. And you should ask, not the priest and parishioners who remained at the prayer service.
Miracles
Is there a prayer to Spiridon Trimifuntsky for the sale of an apartment or car? There is no separate prayer for this request. But it is known that the saint helps those in need instantly. Here are some examples of housing assistance:
- A large family huddled in a communal room. The queue for obtaining an apartment stood even after the birth of the second child. In 2007, the relics of the saint were brought to Moscow. The family along with the children went to them. They leaned in and asked for help. After a while they got a lookout for an excellent apartment. They were so happy that at first they did not understand where the help came from. And when they connected the incident with the fact that they visited the relics of the saint of God, they thanked him with a prayer service. They thanked the Lord with another child.
- Another father of many children tells how he came with an Armenian comrade to venerate the relics of Spyridon Trimifuntsky. The comrade did not dare to apply, because he was a representative of a different denomination. But I read the akathist to the saint. Three months later, the father of a large family receives an apartment. A friend gets rejected. Three more months go by, an Armenian comrade gets an apartment.
Prayer Appeal
We talked above about the prayer to SpiridonTrimifuntsky about the apartment. And they gave an example of how quickly the saint responds to the requests of those who need his help. How to contact him? What prayers to read?

In addition to the prayers presented, you can read an akathist. As we have already mentioned above.
Help with work
Is there a prayer to Spiridon of Trimifuntsky for work? As we have already found out, there is no separate prayer for this or that request. Saints do not provide services that can be ordered for a specific prayer. Everything comes from the heart of the one who prays. And if he really needs help, he will get it. Here is an example of help as soon as possible.
The man was left without a job. There was literally no money, only enough for bread and milk. Only a few days left of finance. And what will happen next? Will you have to starve? A desperate man read an akathist to the saint. The next day I received the first order (works via the Internet). There was money for food. Then came more orders. The suppliant thanked his helper heartily.
Help in illnesses
By prayer to the Holy Trimifuntsky miracle worker, diseases are healed. And imagine that during an exacerbation, the pain went away only because the sore spot was smeared with oil consecrated on the relics. And no one was praying at that time. How did it happen? Nowtell.
The relics of Spyridon Trimifuntsky were brought to Minsk. The woman and her friend went to bow to the miracle worker. And the woman knew nothing about him. They venerated the relics, bought the oil consecrated on the relics. Received as a gift an icon of a saint. This woman returned home, put the received to the icons and forgot safely until a certain moment.
And at the end of autumn her gastritis worsened. The pain was so severe that I could not sleep at night. When it completely "twisted", I remembered the oil. I anointed my stomach and the pain immediately went away. It was as if she didn't exist. After some time, the attack recurred. The woman again anointed the sore spot with oil. And got help.
As the patient herself admits, she does not follow the prescribed diet and does not take medicine. Not surprisingly, the attack happened for the third time. And again Saint Spyridon came to the rescue. After that, the woman offered a prayer of thanksgiving to the Trimifunt miracle worker. Namely, she read the troparion, which was printed on the reverse side of the icon, presented to her at the relics. This is how merciful and patient the holy saint of God is. And how he helps when it's most needed.
Lifetime miracles
We talked about whether there is a prayer for housing to the Trimifunt miracle worker, about selling something, about work, about he alth. As it turned out, there are no special prayers for each of these cases. There is an akathist, troparia and prayers that we have given above, and faith in the help of the saint.
But we promised to tell about the miracles that happened through the prayers of SpiridonTrimifuntsky during his lifetime. Let's start with how the saint begged for rain. This happened during a terrible drought in Cyprus. The famine claimed many lives. The saint turned to the Lord, and through his prayers it began to rain.
Punished the rich man
We found out what kind of prayer for the work of the Trimifunt miracle worker is. Nothing special, and not just about work. All prayer comes from the heart. As we pray, we shall receive. It was a small reminder that prayer must be sincere. Now we will tell you how the saint punished the greedy rich man.
Once upon a time there was a rich grain merchant. There was a crop failure, and merchants raised the price of grain. This rich man was approached by a poor man. He begged him to give grain at interest. But the merchant did not even listen to the sufferer, for he was very greedy and sought only profit in everything. And then the poor man went with his misfortune to Spyridon of Trimifuntsky. And he comforted him, saying that soon the rich man himself would ask to take grain from him. And the poor man's barn will be filled with bread.
So it happened. During the night it rained so heavily that the barn of the greedy merchant was completely destroyed. And the precious grain was carried away by water currents. The next day, the merchant ran down the street and asked to take as much grain as needed. He reached out to everyone, hoping to save something.
The poor man collected the wheat that was carried away by the water. So the words of St. Spyridon came true.
Baby Resurrection
Through the prayer of the Trimifuntsky miracle worker, such a miracle happened that does not fit in the mind.
Returning home from the emperorConstance, the saint met a woman. Her child died. And although the unfortunate mother was a pagan, she suffered very much, it was obvious. What mother doesn't want her child to live.
Seeing this, Spiridon Trimifunsky knelt down, praying to the Creator. And was heard, the child came to life. And then the baby's mother fell down, lifeless. She simply could not stand this miracle, her heart stopped. The saint prayed again. And then the dead woman opened her eyes, as if awakened from a dream. It was obvious that she did not understand what had happened to her.
This story was made public only after the death of Spiridon Trimifuntsky. Artemidor, the deacon, with whom the saint was returning home that day, became her witness. He also told about the miracle that happened.
Serving with angels
One day the saint came to the temple to serve the evening service. But there were no parishioners, no one showed up. Except for the clergy. Spiridon stood before the altar, gave an exclamation. And when he proclaimed "Peace to all!", There was no one to answer, as it should be. Suddenly, a voice was heard from above, which answered the saint in the way it should be according to the rules of the service. After each petition, many voices from above sang "Lord, have mercy!".
People were passing by the temple. Attracted by the marvelous singing, they looked inside to look at the singing. Can you imagine their horror when the curious did not see anyone? Only voices were heard. How so? There is no one, but there is singing? Yes, everything is simple. At that moment, angels served with St. Spyridon of Trimifuntsky.
Conclusion
Now the reader knows what prayer to St. Spyridon can give. The text of the prayer of Spyridon Trimifuntsky for well-being and not only is given above. And if it is sincere, it will not go unanswered. It became clear what to ask him, why go to the relics and how to address the saint.
In the end, I would like to add a few lines of gratitude. We love, having received what we want, forget to thank. Let's not be ungrateful, but go to the temple and order a thanksgiving service. Let's put a candle in front of the image of Spyridon Trimifuntsky and thank you in addition in our own words.
