The history of the Krivakov source, unfortunately, is lost. There is an assumption that the icon of God's Mother of God was once acquired here, because a special day for the source is the feast of the Mother of God, who is celebrated in the ninth Friday after Easter. Once there was a chapel, now only Machovka remained from her, - broken, she rusts for many years in herbal thickets. Residents of the neighboring village of Nekrasovka say that the bell ringing is still heard.

The source was considered miraculous. So this or not - the question is controversial, but today they come here to pray and get what they ask for: who is healing, who is a long-awaited child.

IN soviet time With a source, a fierce struggle. He was falling asleep by Chlorine, the earth, poured out the diesel fuel, but he invariably found the way to the light and made his way to the surface.

There are no villages for a long time. Only three poplar people resemble about its existence. But, despite this, every year in the ninth Friday residents of surrounding villages with perseverance, worthy respect, walk and on cars go and go, as they say, on Krivakovo. The source "dressed" into the tree - made a well. Now you can easily dial the holy water. They cut the battleship, put a cross, near which prayer was held near the year.

July 1 in the calendar - Yarilin day. It is believed that this day should be hot, dry and sunny weather. With these participants of the current godfather on Krivankovo \u200b\u200bare not lucky. They went to the road yet, but half of the way and half of the way were passed, how the streams of water were collected on them, as if they were tested for strength people. And if you consider that the rains went throughout the week, it is not difficult to guess, which was the road - black, fatty, squating mash. And passed 8-9 kilometers.

Another shower will overtake the procession already on the approach to the source. But, as if on the order (or at the order, more than anyone, it's someone like more), the rain subsided, barely started prayer. And again spiked, as soon as the people scored the holy water into the bottle. Maybe an accident, and maybe a miracle ...

The date of the Orthodox Easter is determined by the church Julian calendar, taking into account the calculated lunar calendar and seven-day weeks.

In accordance with these rules, and, believing the accuracy of the nineteen-year-old Metonov, the repetition cycle of the lunar phases in the Julian calendar, Easter tables (Easter) were drawn up, which determine the time of Easter celebration. Easter dates are cyclically repeated every 532 years (Great Indiction).
