To date Day saint, we have chosen the date of natalice (birth to Heaven) in the more traditional Orthodox Church. The troparia of our invention are written in rhymed Alexandrine not, and can sing the traditional Slavic colors. We in the West many local intercessors who watch over us so for centuries. Many are, alas, completely forgotten. It is natural that we celebrate together with the holy Russian, Greek, Serbian or Romanian who brought Orthodoxy in our land. Often, these relics blessed saints abandoned, have, when they were revered and honored an icon, shown the grace of God through the miracle of myrrh.

That the prayers of our fathers in faith Saints Orthodox West, and our sponsors spiritual saints Eastern Orthodox synergistic, lead us to the eternal kingdom of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Amen!
