Church Orthodox holidays in March

Theodore lived at the end of the 2nd - beginning of the 3rd century. in the city of Alasia on the Black Sea coast and was a warrior who openly professed faith in Christ. In 306, under the emperor Galerius, the commander tried in vain to force Theodore to sacrifice to the pagan gods. After much torment, the saint was sentenced to be burned at the stake. His body, undamaged by fire, was buried in the city of Evkhaitakh, later the relics were transferred to Constantinople.

Fifty years after Theodore's death, the emperor Julian the Apostate ordered the mayor of Constantinople to sprinkle all food supplies in the markets with idolized blood during the first week of Great Lent. Saint Theodore, appearing in a dream to the archbishop, ordered to announce to all Christians that no one should buy anything in the markets, but eat boiled wheat with honey. In commemoration of this event, the church annually celebrates another celebration of the Holy Great Martyr Theodore the Tyrone - on Saturday of the first week of Great Lent.

Hieromartyr Hermogenes

2nd of March the church also remembers. Saint Hermogenes lived at the end of the 16th – beginning of the 17th centuries. He was the first Metropolitan of Kazan and did a lot to convert local residents to Christianity. In 1606, Metropolitan Hermogenes was elected to the primatial see. During the Troubles, when the Polish troops captured Moscow, the patriarch was imprisoned in the Miracle Monastery. From prison, he addressed the last message to the Russian people, blessing the liberation war against the conquerors. After nine months in captivity, the patriarch was martyred from starvation. After the liberation of Russia from the invaders, the body of the holy martyr was buried in the Miracle Monastery, and in 1654 was transferred to the Moscow Assumption Cathedral.

Holy Prince Yaroslav the Wise

the 5th of March- Memorial Day of the Right-Believing Prince Yaroslav the Wise. The Holy Prince Yaroslav was born in 978 and was the son of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Grand Duke Vladimir. He left a memory of himself by compiling a set of laws of Kievan Rus - "Russian Truth", which, supplemented by his sons and grandson Vladimir Monomakh, became the legal basis for the life of the Russian people. Prince Yaroslav paid much attention to Christian enlightenment; by his order, dozens of churches were built in various cities. The veneration of the noble prince Yaroslav the Wise as a locally venerated ascetic began immediately after his death in 1054. The prince was glorified as a saint in 2005 with the blessing of His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II.

Head of St. Prophet John the Baptist

In accordance with the calendar, on March 5, name days are celebrated exclusively by those who received the following male names at baptism: Anton, Vasily, David, Denis, Ivan, Nikolai, Yaroslav and some others.

In the church calendar of holidays for 2019, we additionally find that birthdays on this day and those who were baptized in honor of the New Martyr Nicholas (Benevolensky).

Since there are no female names for this day, the Angel Day of girls born today, according to the old rite, will be celebrated eight days after their birth.

Consequently, women's names for them must be chosen in honor of those saints who are revered on the indicated day. If, however, suitable names are not found for this date, then the name day can be postponed for forty days, when children are traditionally supposed to be baptized.

At the same time, on March 5, the Church venerates the Monk Leo, Bishop of Catan, which means that the people named so also celebrate their name day on this day. And it is recommended that boys born today be named after the Reverend Leo.

In this case, the name will not only protect its bearer from evil and misfortune, but also through it the strength and best qualities of the patron saint will be transmitted to the child.

And Lviv will be characterized by healthy self-esteem, the desire for high goals and perseverance in achieving them. They occupy a worthy position in society and know how to make the most pleasant impression, while maintaining cordiality and sincerity.

Saint Leo led a pious life and devoted all his strength to serving God and his neighbors. He spent all the time in his spiritual perfection, constantly doing good deeds.

His merits were highly noted by the faithful and the clergy, thanks to which he was entrusted with the head of the episcopal chair of one of the Sicilian cities. Lev treated his duties responsibly, wanting to help those in need.

He made sure that every inhabitant of the city entrusted to him had a roof over his head and food, he did not forget about spiritual food. But the souls of the parishioners, instructed by him on the true path, were embarrassed by the city sorcerer.

When he came to perform his rituals in the temple of God, Leo, full of determination, led him out of the church and entered the blazing fire with him. The sorcerer was burned, but the bishop emerged from the flames unharmed.

And this is far from the only miracle he created, he could also heal ailments and cast out demons with the power of his prayer.
