This miracle occured occurred on October 24, 1688.
On [[July 23]], the Church commemorates the icon of the Mother of God, Joy of All Who Sorrow of St. Petersburg. This icon was [[glorification|glorified]] in 1888 when the chapel it was located in was struck by lightning. Miraculously, this icon survived despite all else being burned, and twelve coins from the poor box became attached to the icon.
