“Under the guidance of father Seraphim a mill was built in 1827 and a separate community for those who had taken vows of celibacy was set up near the mill. The legend says that the Virgin Mary appeared to father Seraphim and in this way the religious community was blessed by her presence. By order of father Seraphim the nuns dug a trench along the path which the Virgin Mary had trodden. Seraphim explained its significance in the following way: it was the Queen of Heaven herself who measured out this trench. Whoever crosses this trench while praying and has read the 150 prayers to Virgin Mary that person will get all of Afon, Jerusalem and Kiev. From that time on, the village of Diveevo has been considered as the fourth domain of the Virgin Mary on earth”.
