Blessed Olga said, "God can create great beauty from complete desolation and nothingness." These words of healing came during an appearance of Mat. Olga to a woman who had suffered sexual abuse, and this account is recorded here. During her life on earth Mat. Olga selflessly cared for her husband, Fr. Nikolai, and their eight children. She helped others as a midwife, knit and made clothes for many people in her town and beyond, and battled two bouts with cancer, the second leading to her blessed repose on November 8, 1979 in Kwethluk, Alaska.As seen in the life and early miracles of Mat. Olga, she is truly a Saint blessed of God and continues to show her love for others, especially women who have suffered trauma. In God's time, the Church may officially recognize her as a Saint of God. Until then, may we follow her steps and ask her for prayers, along with the rest of the Saints of North America. O Blessed Mother Olga, pray to God for us!This is a reading of the following text from OrthoChristian.com : http://orthochristian.com/86554.htmlThis channel is dedicated to sharing the prayers, hymns, teachings, and service texts of the Eastern Orthodox Church.
