She was a Russian Orthodox Christian woman who lived through the Soviet Revolution and moved to France. In Paris, she became a nun and dedicated her life to helping those in need. During the Holocaust, she did everything she could to help those persecuted and to help Jews seek refuge and escape. She even infiltrated places where Jews were gathered, about to be deported to concentration camps, and smuggled them out to save their lives and give them fake baptismal certificates to hide their Jewish identity. When her heroic actions were uncovered, she was arrested and taken to the Ravensbrück concentration camp, where she was eventually killed by the Nazis simply for helping people. She is remembered as a saint in the Orthodox Church ☦️ and her feast day is today, the 20th of July. She is also recognized as Righteous Among the Nations by the Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial institution ✡️. She is a great inspiration to many of us. She helped me love the church.
