Calendar for August 1 Saint Stephen Despot Serbian
Constantine the Philosopher, the biographer of Saint Stephen the High, son of Saint Prince Lazar of Serbia and Princess Milica, writes that the Holy God-Seer Moses was a role model and example for the Holy God-lover, the righteous Stephen Despot, because the life path of the two of them was almost the same from the very beginning. Both Moses and Stephen led their God-chosen people through the land of Egyptian and Turkish slavery for about 40 years. He also compared him to Joshua, because he was similar to him in faith and courage, and to the prophet Daniel and the Holy Three Youths from the furnace of Babylon, because he, like them, was in the jaws of lions and passed through a terrible fire. He built wonderful foundations, the monasteries of Mansija and Kalenić. He reposed in the Lord in 1427.
Venerable Macrina. Venerable Dias. Venerable Eugenia, Serbian Empress Milica.
