This day in Russian history - Today, on the day of memory of St. Sergius of Obnor, we also remember the famous Russian pilgrim-pedestrian Vasily of Kiev (Grigorovich-Barsky)translated

Reverend Sergius of Obnor, Nuromsky, Vologda wonderworker, began monastic exploits on Holy Mount Athos. Then he came to Russia and settled in the monastery of the Life-Giving Trinity, where, under the leadership of St. Sergius of Radonezh, he continued his exploits.
