Two new temple projects are planned to be obtained from the examination in May (Meeting in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior)

Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sofia

The feat of standing in the faith of these martyrs was revealed to the human race many centuries ago to strengthen all subsequent generations of Christians. May this feat strengthen us, modern Christians.

The holy martyrs Faith, Hope and Love were born in Italy. Their mother, Saint Sophia, was a devout Christian widow. Calling her daughters the names of three Christian virtues, Sophia raised them in love for the Lord Jesus Christ. During the time of persecution of Christians, Sofia and her daughters did not hide their faith in Christ and openly confessed it to everyone. The governor Antiochus informed the emperor Hadrian (117 - 138), and he ordered the righteous to be brought to Rome.

When the holy virgins appeared before the emperor, all those present were amazed at their calmness: it seemed that they were called to a bright celebration, and not to torture. Calling the sisters in turn, Adrian urged them to make a sacrifice to the goddess Artemis. Young virgins (Vera was 12, Nadezhda - 10, and Lyubov - 9 years old) remained adamant. Then the emperor ordered to cruelly torture them: they burned the holy girls on an iron grate, threw them into a hot furnace and into a boiler with boiling tar, but the Lord kept them with His Invisible Force.

The youngest, Love, was tied to a wheel and beaten with sticks until her body turned into a continuous bloody wound. Bearing unprecedented torment, the holy virgins glorified their Heavenly Bridegroom and remained unshakable in faith. Hagia Sophia was subjected to a different, more severe torture: the mother was forced to look at the suffering of her daughters. But she showed extraordinary courage and all the time urged the girls to endure torment in the Name of Heavenly Groom to the end.

All three girls happily met their martyrdom. Finally, they were beheaded. To prolong the spiritual suffering of St. Sophia, the emperor allowed her to take the bodies of her daughters. Sofia put their remains in the ark and drove away with honors in a chariot outside the city, where she buried in a high place. For three days, Saint Sophia sat at the graves of her daughters and, finally, betrayed her soul to the Lord. Believers buried the body of the saint in the same place. The relics of the holy martyrs from 777 rest in the north-east of France in Alsace, in the church of Echo.

The Day of the Holy Martyrs Faith, Hope, Love and Sophia is celebrated by the Orthodox Church on September 30. On this day, the patronal feast of the future temple will be lightly celebrated. And may every year, especially on the throne, the temple be filled with infants and youths, brought by pious parents to the inexhaustible source of grace - the Lord and Our Savior Jesus Christ.
