St. Therapont of White Lake and Mozhaisk

This issue of The Orthodox Word begins with a new chapter from the upcoming second volume of The Northern Thebaid, on St. Therapont of White Lake and Mozhaisk. St. Therapont was a fellow ascetic of the renowned St. Cyril of White Lake. He began his monastic life in Moscow, and then moved to the wilderness areas of the Vologda region, where he founded a monastery. He was summoned by Prince Andrew of Mozhaisk to found another monastery in the prince's realm, where the saint reposed in 1426.

This article is followed by the fourth and concluding part of the life of New Hieromartyr Andronicus of Perm, and the issue concludes with the Orthodox Word index for 2020.
