On July 25th, the Orthodox Church celebrates the Feast of the Icon of the Mother of God of the Three Hands. The icon of the Theotokos is connected with Saint John of Damascus who lived in the 8th century. Being a defender of Orthodoxy, the Emperor ordered for St. Johns hand to be cut off. Having taken the cuf off hand and praying before the Theotokos, his hand was restored.
The Wonderworking Icon of the Theotokos is on Mount Athos in the Serbian Monastery Hilandar.
Most Holy Theotokos save us.
