Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh


The Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh goes back to the 17th century, when the first lists of the disciples of Saint Sergius of Radonezh were compiled, and his Canon was published. It is from this time that the icon of the Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh dates to. In 1843, Archimandrite Anthony of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, with the blessing and under the supervision of Metropolitan Philaret of Moscow, organized a dependency known as the Monastery of Gethsemane. On September 27, 1853, a refectory church in the name of Saints Sergius and Nikon of Radonezh was consecrated there. At the Monastery of Gethsemane a Paterikon of the Seventy-Five disciples, relatives and associates of Saint Sergius was formed. On June 11, 1981, Archimandrite Jerome of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra consecrated a new chapel in honor of the Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh, arranged in the northern part of the church. With the blessing of Patriarch Pimen of Moscow and All Russia, the celebration of the Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh was established the day after the feast in honor of Finding the Relics of Saint Sergius of Radonezh – July 6/19. On July 6/19, 1981, the solemn celebration of the Synaxis of the Saints of Radonezh was first performed.
