Xenophon of Robika, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Xenophon of Robika (died June 28, 1262) was a Russian Orthodox monk, later declared a saint. A student of Barlaam of Khutyn, he later became head of the Khutyn Monastery. Resigning from this post, he later founded the Trinity Monastery on the Robika River, close to Novgorod; he died there in 1262. Canonization (or canonisation) is the act by which a Catholic church or group declares a deceased person to be a saint and is included in the canon, or list, of recognized saints. Originally, individuals were recognized as saints without any formal process. Canonization, whether formal or informal, does not make someone a saint: it is only a declaration that the person is a saint and was a saint even before canonization.
