Juliana of Lazarevo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saint Juliana of Lazarevo (1530-1604) - a saint of Russian Orthodox Church. She was born in Moscow, to parents named Justin and Stephanida Nedyurev, and lived righteous life, consecrating herself to helping poor and needy people.[1]

Her life is considered as an example of layman living in the world, as anyone may be supposed to please God not only by withdrawing from the world to a monastic cell, but within a family, amid cares for children, spouse and members of the household.

The day of Saint Juliana of Lazarevo is celebrated by Russian Orthodox Church on the 2nd of January.
