Calendar for December 15 Saint Emperor Uroš
The only son of the Serbian Emperor Dušan and Empress Jelena, sister of the Bulgarian Emperor John Alexander. He reigned during the difficult time of the collapse of the Serbian Empire. Pious, meek by nature, he did not want to forcefully subjugate the unruly nobles, among whom Vukašin stood out in particular, who came to the good emperor's head. Saint Emperor Uroš was martyred in 1367, at the age of 31. But, as with other martyrs, it was with him: killed by people - glorified by God. His miraculous relics rested in the Jazka Monastery, on Fruška Gora, from where, during World War II, in 1942, they were transferred to Belgrade and laid in the Cathedral Church, next to the bodies of Holy Prince Lazar and Holy Despot Stefan Štiljanović.
Saint Joanikije of the Virgin. Holy Prophet Habakkuk. Holy Martyr Miropia. Venerable Athanasius, Prisoner of the Caves. Saint Isa, Bishop of Cyclades. Christmas Fast.
