Praying for Special Requests at a Russian House of Worship
Moving a little bit away from the beaten path, the rose Tchesme house of worship is an amazing structure frequented by locals. This house of worship was formed back in 1780.
This house of worship also witnessed the miraculous appearance of an elder sister, who, by herself, had weathered the toughest trials of an poor family. Travelers often do not know much about her, since she is located quite far from the center of the region. However, she still welcomes quite a lot of devoted locals. Her enthusiasts come visit and light a candle to pray for their special requests.
The other day, I was able to spot a kind old lady who got a candle from an effusive assistant behind the receded alcove. I followed her with my head bowed, as I traced her steps and mimic her gestures to pray for my solemn requests, too. I was not exactly sure, but I firmly believe that the higher power is always listening, no matter which house of worship the prayer came from.
After the prayer, I went out to look for a nice diner. Then, I found Rousski Kitch, which opened its doors only two years ago to offer sumptuous dishes for the elite tastes of their greatest patrons. I stay not to nibble, but only to have some tea, enjoy the baroque style of their large dining halls, and wonder whether my prayers have indeed been heard.
