Byzantine Saints
Byzantine Saints are individuals recognized for their holiness and virtue within the Eastern Orthodox Church and Eastern Catholic Churches. They often lived during the Byzantine Empire, which lasted from 330 to 1453 AD, and are celebrated for their contributions to Christianity, including missionary work, theological writings, and acts of charity.
Many Byzantine Saints are commemorated on specific feast days, and their lives are documented in hagiographies, which are biographies that highlight their spiritual achievements. Notable examples include Saint Nicholas, known for his generosity, and Saint George, celebrated for his bravery. Their stories continue to inspire believers today.
