The grave of Saint Xenia of Petersburg - contact info

[madalina]

Dear all,

I think Saint Xenia is a very powerful saint, I read about her life and the miracles she performed and I am praying for her intercession. I read about people who were helped after having served a panikhida at her grave. I would like to talk to someone living in Sankt Petersburg that could help me get in touch with a priest from Smolensk cemetery. I would like to pay for a panikhida at her grave, but I don't know the cyrillic alphabet and I couldn't find any contact info on the internet. She was a special saint, a fool-for-Christ and she asked people who needed her help to serve a panikhida. I was advised to pray to Saint Xenia. On her grave it is written : "Whoever has known me, may he remember' my soul for the salvation of his own soul."

If you could help me with some information, I'd be grateful.

God bless you!

Welcome to TAW! And to CF!

I'm afraid I can't help you with the information - I hope someone here can. Maybe there's someone who can at least read the websites for you?

I do know I was told I should ask St. Xenia's intercession on a particular issue that had been a problem for YEARS, especially in one part. Both parts though immediately were answered, and I still see growth of blessings out of it that show me the answer was even much better than I realized.

And I had been praying on my own for a long time.

Again, though, welcome! And I hope you can get the information you want.

I can't add anything since I have never been to her grave, but welcome to TAW!
