“One was buried alive in the ground, the other was lowered into an ice hole. How can you forget this?”: how the memory of the new martyrs is preserved in Goretov near Moscowtranslated

October 26, 2026 · 1 min read

The new martyrs and confessors of the 20th century differ from the ancient saints primarily in that their world is understandable to us - it almost coincides with ours. They lived in times that are still remembered by old photographs and family legends, served in ordinary parishes, and walked the same streets as us.

Message “One was buried alive in the ground, the other was lowered into an ice hole. How can this be forgotten?”: how the memory of the new martyrs is preserved in Goretov near Moscow appeared first on Tver Diocese.
