Lives of Orthodox Saints
The sources for this Lives of Orthodox Saints channel are mostly from the Orthodox Church in America website, or from the four volume "Prologue From Ochrid" by Bishop Nikolai Velimirovic. Occasionally I use other sources, or a combination of two or more. I am most interested in finding out about the lesser known Saints which so often have very interesting stories. I often try to make the post just before the Saints commemoration day, or at some other day that would be appropriate.
