| Summary: | The life of Orthodox saints has always been a feat. Whether this be labour and prayers in the monastery – veneration, propagation and protecting the faith – confession or meeting death for the name of Christ – martyrdom. Saint Luke (Voino-Yasenetsky), archbishop and surgeon, devoted his whole life to the common people, once choosing the path of ministry. He healed physical maladies as a skilled physician and spiritually instructed beginners in faith as a bishop. Saint Luke, glorified amongst the Saints by the Orthodox Church, has left behind a rich scientific and theological heritage and enjoys popular veneration as a healer to this day. |
