Russian Orthodox Church leaders tell workers which religious pictures to display at their jobs. Church officials suggest people put holy images on their office desks. Hieromonk Feodorit talks about the best choices for workplace icons. He says the Mother of God icon called Addition of the Mind helps everyone who works. This particular image brings wisdom to people during their daily tasks.

Workers should also display icons of saints who share their names. Church leaders recommend finding pictures of saints who protect specific jobs. Doctors often choose images of Great Martyr Panteleimon or Saint Luke for their offices. These saints watch over medical workers and help them care for patients. Different jobs have different protective saints who guide workers.

People can pray to many holy figures during work hours. The Mother of God listens to prayers from all believers. Workers can ask Jesus Christ for help with difficult tasks. Any saint can hear prayers and offer guidance to faithful workers. Church leaders say believers should feel free to pray to any holy figure they trust.
