Serafimo-Diveevsky Monastery or Holy Trinity Saint Seraphim-Diveyevo Monastery is a monastery of nuns (convent) in Diveyevo settlement near Sarov (12 km), and near the city of Nizhny Novgorod (185 km), in the Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, Russia.
The history of the Holy Trinity Saint Seraphim-Diveyevo Monastery began in 1760 when the Mother of God appeared to nun Alexandra in a dream at the village of Diveyevo and promised to base a great and unrivalled convent there. The Most Holy Mother of God has chosen Diveyevo to be Her favorite place, «the fouth and last dower on the Earth». She also promised to gather there the mercy and the grace of the Lord from all her previous dowers: Iberia (Georgia), Mount Athos (Greece), Holy Trinity Lavra of the Caves (Ukraine, Kiev).
Diveyevo is famous for its sacred springs. They are health-giving and cure people from different ailments.

Worshippers mark Epiphany with dip in frozen lake
(20 Jan 2020) LEAD IN:
Orthodox Christians in Russia have celebrated Epiphany by taking chilly ice baths in a frozen lake.
Believers submerge themselves in freezing water to commemorate the baptism of Jesus Christ.
STORY-LINE:
It's the depths of winter and the pond at Nizhny Novgorod is a frozen expanse.
But preparations are underway for this icy water to host a group of hardy Christian worshippers.
Every year, believers take part in an Epiphany ritual where they submerge themselves in the freezing lake.
But first officials must test the water to make sure it is safe.
Samples are taken for microbiological indicators, including pathogenic microflora, and also for chemical indicators that characterize organic and non organic water pollution, says Dimitry Lipschits, Head of the Department for Supervision of Communal Hygiene of Nizhny Novgorod.
People need to understand that in the first place it is necessary to use only official places for swimming, where everything is arranged beforehand and there will also be rescuers and doctors on duty.
Popular folklore says the night of the Epiphany brings the most severe frosts of winter.
But this year, unseasonably warm conditions mean this pond is not as frozen as normal.
So organisers of the ritual are building the fonts where people will enter the water as close to shore as possible.
A diver in full kit enters each of the wooden enclosures to check there are no hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface.
The bottom of the font was examined for sharp objects, sharp corners and also how it is prepared for the divers. Nothing dangerous was found, says Andrey Sikida, part of the emergency rescue team of the Nizhny Novgorod region.
At midnight on the night of the Epiphany, a priest blesses the waters of the pond.
For now, worshippers are wrapped up against the cold.
But once the water has been blessed, those taking part strip off and prepare to take an icy cold dip.
In honour of the Holy Trinity - the Christian doctrine that God is made up of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit - bathers submerge themselves three times in the water.
And the people here insist the experience is not as uncomfortable as it looks.
This is Epiphany and during the Epiphany, the cold is always the same, it makes you warm, says Konstantin Loshchinsky,.
At first you feel the burst of energy, but after you do not feel cold at all. I cannot even fill the blowing of the wind.
For some, this is the first time they have taken part in the ritual after years of longing to be involved.
I decided to go into the water for the first time. I've beengaiming to do it for eight years. I wanted it and at last, decided to try. I have managed it, says Ksenya Nestrova.
In the Orthodox Christian calendar, this religious holiday celebrates the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River.
Worshippers believe that water on Epiphany night has healing powers and washes away their sins.
