The "Rejoice and Consolation" icon became famous on Mount Athos in the Vatopedi monastery in the 14th century. Legend has it that this icon came to life. The Mother of God decided to warn the monks about the preparation of an attack by pirates, and the Infant Jesus Christ began to cover Her mouth with his hand because he wanted to punish the negligent monks. After the vision, the icon changed. And now we see the Baby touching the face of the Mother of God, and how She turns away and takes away the hand of the Son, saving the monastery. The name of the icon speaks for itself: the Mother of God, through prayers to this image, bestows many favors, consoles in sorrows, heals ailments. "Save from troubles, Your servants, Mother of God, the only Blessed Virgin", - it is written on the back.
