The Significance of Saint Ioustinos Popovic

The holy and pious Father Justin the Younger, from the Tseli Monastery (Monastery of the Holy Archangels) was born on March 25, 1894, at the dawn of the Annunciation in the town of Vranja in southern Serbia. His father was named Spyridon, known as Fr. Alexios, and his mother Anastasia. At the baptism he received the name Blagogie (Evangelos). His father's family was traditionally a priesthood and had given the Orthodox Church at least seven priests. This is also revealed by the surname Popovic (= Papadopoulos). From an early age, he often visited with his parents Saint Prochoros the Miracle Worker in the nearby Monastery of Psiniski where he saw with his own eyes the healing of his mother from a serious illness in 1929. From his pious mother he was taught the evangelical piety, the prayer and fasting.
