The Life

Wenceslaus of Bohemia is venerated as a passion-bearer of the Orthodox Church, commemorated in the Orthodox calendar. The passion-bearers are those who, like Saints Boris and Gleb, accepted unjust death with Christ-like meekness, even at the hands of family or fellow Christians. A more complete account of this saint's life and martyrdom will be added soon.
