• Sainted GERASIM 革拉息默 the Bishop of Great Perm (1441/1443) // JAN 24 //
Ὁ Ἅγιος Γεράσιμος
Saint Gerasimus was the third bishop of the Zyryan people, and a worthy successor of Saint Stephen, Enlightener of Perm. He was elevated to the See of Perm sometime after the year 1416, when only part of the Zyryani had been converted to Christianity. He was concerned for his flock, which suffered incessant incursions from the Novgorodians and pagan Vogulians. He went into the Vogul camps, urging them to stop plundering the defenseless Christians of Perm. On one of these journeys in 1441, he was murdered by his Vogul servant (according to tradition he was strangled with his omophorion). He was buried in the Annunciation church of the village of Ust-Vym not far from the city of Yarenga, at the River Vychegda (also January 24).
• Sainted PITIRIM 彼提林 the Bishop of Great Perm (1455/1456) //AUG 19 //
Ὁ Ἅγιος Πιτιρὶμ ἐκ Ρωσίας
Archimandrite Pitirim succeeded Saint Gerasimus as bishop of Great Perm and Ustiug. Even during his time the Voguli had not ceased attacking the peaceful Zyryani, the settlers of Perm. Bishop Pitirim stood up for his flock just as his predecessor had done. In 1447 he personally appealed to the Great Prince to help the Zyryani. The saint often visited his flock, which was spread out over a wide territory, instructing them in the Word of God and assisting them in their misfortunes. He undertook long journeys to enlighten the pagan Voguli, during which his life was frequently in danger, and he had to endure all sorts of privation. The saint did not slacken his efforts, he enlightened and instructed people in their homes, in churches, and in the open places. By his preaching he converted many of the Voguli who lived along the tributaries of the River Pechora, to Christianity. Because of this he aroused the terrible wrath of the leader of the Voguli, Asyk, who murdered the saint in a field as he was serving a Molieben. This occurred not far from Ust-Vym on August 19, 1455. Saint Pitirim compiled the Life of Saint Alexis and the Canon for the uncovering of his relics. The relics of Saint Pitirim rest in the Annunciation temple in Ust-Vym (in Vologda district).
• Sainted IONA 约纳 the Bishop of Great Perm (1470) // JUN 6 //
Ὁ Ἅγιος Ἰωνᾶς
After Saint Pitirim, Saint Jonah ascended the throne of Perm. He converted to Christianity the remaining part of Great Perm, i.e. the pagan tribes living along the Rivers Vishera, Kama, Chusova and others. By his efforts the idols were eradicated and in their place churches were built. Experienced pastors were sent to teach the new converts at the church-run schools of Ust-Vym. Saint Jonah reposed on June 6, 1470. His relics rest together with the relics of Saints Gerasimus and Pitirim in the Annunciation temple in Ust-Vym (in Vologda district).

• Holy monk ANDREI 安德列 Rublev 魯布烈夫, iconographer 圣像画家 (1430) of the Spaso-Andronikov Monastery
安德烈•魯布烈夫（生於約1360年，死亡年代有1427年1月29日，以及1428年10月17日等說法）被認為是俄國最偉大的聖像畫家。現今對於他的早年生活的資訊並不多，也無法確認他誕生的地方。他大多以修士的身分住在謝爾蓋聖三一修道院。他在歷史舞台上最早的登場是在1405年參與莫斯科克里姆林宮的聖母領報大教堂聖像畫及壁畫的繪制工作。他在所有參與者間資歷最小，同行的還有費奧凡（Theophanes the Greek）和普罗霍尔（Prokhor of Gorodets）兩位當代聖像畫大師。其中費奧凡也是安德烈的聖像畫老師。1408年，他與好友及工作夥伴丹尼爾•其爾內（Daniil Cherni）一起在弗拉基米爾的聖母安息大教堂繪畫壁畫及聖像。1425年到1427年，在院長尼科•拉多涅日斯的邀請下，他和丹尼爾一起在謝爾蓋聖三一修道院的聖三一大教堂進行繪畫工作。丹尼爾死後，安德烈來到莫斯科的安卓尼科夫修道院 進行他最後的繪畫工作——救主大教堂的壁畫。在他一生的聖像畫作品中，最為人所知的莫過於聖三一畫像，此畫約繪製於1408年到1425年期間，該畫作結合了「亞伯拉罕待客」的舊約事跡與三位一體的神學概念，以三位客人作為三位一體的代表。 該畫作也經常被後世聖像畫家作為臨摹的對象。
Andrei Rublev (born in the 1360s, died 29 January 1427 or 1430, or 17 October 1428 in Moscow) is considered to be one of the greatest medieval Russian painters of Orthodox icons and frescos. Little information survives about his life; even where he was born is unknown. He probably lived in the Trinity-St Sergius Lavra, near Moscow, under Nikon of Radonezh, who became hegumen after the death of Sergii Radonezhsky in 1392. The first mention of Rublev is in 1405, when he decorated icons and frescos for the Cathedral of the Annunciation of the Moscow Kremlin, in company with Theophanes the Greek and Prokhor of Gorodets. His name was the last of the list of masters, as the junior both by rank and by age. Theophanes was an important Byzantine master, who moved to Russia and is considered to have trained Rublev. Chronicles tell us that together with Daniil Cherni he painted the Assumption Cathedral in Vladimir in 1408 as well as the Trinity Cathedral in the Trinity Lavra of St Sergius between 1425 and 1427. After Daniil's death, Andrei came to Moscow's Andronikov Monastery where he painted his last work, the frescoes of the Saviour Cathedral. He is also believed to have painted at least one of the miniatures in the Khitrovo Gospels. The only work authenticated as entirely his is the icon of the Trinity (c. 1410, currently in the Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow). It is based on an earlier icon known as the "Hospitality of Abraham" (illustrating Genesis 18). Rublev removed the figures of Abraham and Sarah from the scene, and through a subtle use of composition and symbolism changed the subject to focus on the Mystery of the Trinity. In Rublev's art two traditions are combined: the highest asceticism and the classic harmony of Byzantine mannerism. The characters of his paintings are always peaceful and calm. After some time his art came to be perceived as the ideal of Eastern Church painting and of Orthodox iconography.
• Hieromartyr AQUILINUS of Milan (650) born in Bavaria, he fled from the prospect of the episcopate in Cologne, went to Paris and then Milan, preaching against Arianism. He was martyred for this by the Arians. His relics were venerated in Milan in Italy

• Virgin BLATH (also Bláthnait, Bláth, Baithin, Flor or Flora) of Kildare (523) a cook at St Brigid's convent in Kildare where she was honoured as a holy woman
Saint Blath was the lay-sister who served as cook at Saint Brigid's convent in Kildare. She earned a reputation for heroic sanctity, and of her cooking it is said that bread and bacon at Brigid's table were better than a banquet elsewhere.
Saint Blath was a member of the monastic household of Kildare, where she had the role of cook. The stories of Saint Brigid often have a domestic aspect to them and the miracle of Loch Lemnachta is a classic example:
Eight bishops came to Brigit out of Hui Briuin Cualann, i.e. From Telach na n-epscop to Loch Lemnachta beside Kildare on the north. Brigit asked her cook, Blathnait, whether she had food for the bishops. Dixit ilia non. Brigit was ashamed: so the angel told her to milk the cows again. The cows were milked and they filled the tubs, and they would have filled all the vessels in Leinster, so that the milk went over the vessels and made a lake thereof, unde Loch Lemnachta 'New-milk Lough' dicitur.

• Abbot Bishop GILDAS 吉尔达斯 the Wise (570) born in the year the Britons defeated the Saxons at Bath, he was a disciple of St Illtyd. Towards the end of his life, he went to Brittany and lived as a hermit on the island of Rhuys. St Gildas is famous for a work on the sufferings of his homeland, De excidiis Britanniae
Ὁ Ἅγιος Γκίλντας τοῦ Γουάϊς
St Gildas was a British (Welsh) priest born perhaps in Northern Britain in the 5th c. He was called "the Wise" because of his great learning. He delivered a sermon, maybe early in the 6th c called the "Ruin and Conquest of Britain". He condemned kings and clergy like a prophet of the Old Testament, using imagery from the Books of Daniel and Revelation. Valuable though his book is, it is not clear why he regards his contemporaries in Wales with such unrelieved disdain. He mentions few names so we have little means of assessing the objectivity of his work. St Gildas used the island of Steepholm in the Severn Estuary for solitude and prayer. Though a priest he regarded the monastic life with favour. He wrote a Rule less severe than that of St David. Tradition links him with Brittany where he lived in a cave over which is now built a church. He has at least three wells to his name in the region and is said to have been buried at Rhyus.

• Translation of the relics of Holy Hieromartyr IGNATIUS 伊格纳提 Theophorus (The God-Bearer) Bishop of Antioch (107) from Rome, where he suffered martyrdom, to Antioch where earlier he was a bishop // DEC 10 //
Ἀνακομιδὴ Τιμίων Λειψάνων Ἁγίου Ἱερομάρτυρος Ἰγνατίου τοῦ Θεοφόρου
These precious relics were gathered by the faithful, who took them back to Antioch, where they were received with joy by his former flock. Thrown into Rome's amphitheater, Saint Ignatius was torn apart by beasts who left only his hardest bones. After his martyrdom, devoured by wild beasts in the amphitheater in Rome, only a few bones remained. An incomparable treasure, his relics were transferred to Antioch, deposited in a place called the "Cemetery", and preserved for the holy Church by the martyr's intercession. Consequently, his relics were transferred to an ancient pagan temple, called Tychaion (Temple of Fortune), which God suggested to Emperor Theodosius the Younger (408-450) to consecrate to the glorious martyr for his greater veneration. These holy relics were then carried into the city on a chariot and placed inside the ancient pagan temple with great religious solemnities.

• Venerable Sainted LAWRENCE 劳伦提 the Recluse of Kiev Caves, Bishop of Turov, from the Pechersk Lavra (Monastery of the Caves) in Kiev (1194) Ukraine. The Relics are kept at St Anthony Near Caves of the Lavra
Ὁ Ὅσιος Λαυρέντιος ἐκ Κιέβου
Saint Laurence, Hermit of the Caves and Bishop of Turov, in the Near Caves at first lived as a hermit at the monastery of the Great Martyr Demetrius, built by Great Prince Izyaslav at Kiev near the Monastery of the Caves. Later, he transferred to the Kiev Caves monastery, and was glorified by a gift of healing. Lawrence voluntarily chose the life of a recluse following the examples of earlier recluses Isaac and Nicetas. However, he guarded against diabolical temptations which, in the beginning, befell the other two. With great restraint, prayer and godly-thoughts, Lawrence attained a high state of perfection. He learned from a terrified demon that of one-hundred eighteen monks in the Monastery of the Caves, thirty of them were given by God the authority over evil spirits.
He was elevated to the See of Turov in 1182 (Turov is a city in the Minsk region), and was a successor of Saint Cyril of Turov (April 28). Lawrence presented himself to the Lord in the year 1194 AD, and was buried in the Near Caves. His memory is celebrated also on September 28 and on the second Sunday of Great Lent.

愿上帝怜恤我罪人
O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God,
for the sake of the prayers
of Thy most pure Mother,
our holy and God-bearing fathers and all the saints, have mercy on us.
Amen.
