429- The Kurst-Root Icon- Part 2 – Constant Procession

This is the second part of the story of “Our Lady of the Sign.” It is about an icon known as “The “Kurst-Root Icon.”

This icon was found one hundred years later in the ruins of a city once known as “Kurst” and is now part of modern-day Russia.

The city had been destroyed years before and was an overgrown ruin when a hunter stumbled upon this icon laying face down under the root of a tree.

Miracles began to occur.
