Name day (from the word "name") is such a tradition in Christianity, the day when the memory of the saint is honored, whose name a person is named at baptism. The saint becomes the patron of the baby for life, his angel.

Therefore, the name day and the day of the angel are identical concepts. Although sometimes the day of the angel means the day of baptism, and not the date of memory of the saint whose name the person is named.

First Memorial Day

Many saints have several memorial days a year. So, the day of the angel Hope can be celebrated four times - March 14 and 20, September 30 and October 21. Still, the main name day falls on the day of memory of that saint, who is closer in date to the day of christening.

The first day of the year, Nadezhda celebrates the day of the angel on the date of memory of the martyr Nadezhda (Abbakumova). The fate of this simple woman is tragic. Born in 1880 in the village of Vanilovo near Moscow, Nadezhda Petrovna was a deeply religious person all her life. Her husband died in the First World War. Abbakumova raised the children herself. She was selflessly devoted to the Church, for which she was first chosen to the churchcouncil, and then the headman of the Martynovsky Church of the Nativity of Christ. In 1938 she was shot for anti-Soviet activities. She was canonized as a New Martyr and Confessor in 2000. This saint's memorial day falls on March 14.

Another Russian Great Martyr

Nadezhda celebrates the next day of the angel on March 29th. The Monk Martyr Nadezhda (Kruglova) was born in the village of Denisovo (Ryazan Region) in 1887. She was shot in the same 1938, under the same article. But before the second arrest, the former novice of the Yegoryevsky monastery spent 5 years in exile in Kazakhstan. She was canonized in 2003.

Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sophia

Celebrates Angel Hope Day and September 30th. On this date falls the day of memory of Nadezhda Rimskaya. This ten-year-old girl suffered inhuman suffering for her faith.

In the years of early Christianity, the Roman emperors persecuted the champions of the new religion with particular cruelty. Andrian ordered to sacrifice to the goddess Artemis the woman Sophia and her three daughters - Faith, Hope and Love - for their refusal to renounce faith in Christ. A woman with children was brutally tortured, after which the daughters were beheaded in front of their dying mother.

Unable to take tonsure

The last day of the year, the day of the angel of a woman named Hope falls on October 21st. This is the day of memory of another Russian martyr. Nadezhda Grigorievna Azhgerovich, born in 1877, was shot in 1937 under the same article- Anti-Soviet activity. She was born in the Minsk province, had a blessing to become a monk, but Nadezhda Grigoryevna did not have time to become a nun, that is, to take tonsure. She lived all the time in closed monasteries in the Moscow region. She was canonized as a New Martyr and Confessor in 2000.

The most famous martyrs

Congratulations on the day of the angel Faith, Hope, Love and Sofia accept, as mentioned above, on September 30th. Absolutely everyone knows the names of the daughters of a Roman Christian, including atheists.

The martyr girls (the eldest Vera was 12 years old, Nadezhda - 10, Lyubov - 9) accepted inhuman suffering: they were subjected to sophisticated tortures, and then their heads were cut off. Sophia's torment was multiplied by the fact that, being tortured herself, she was forced to look at the torment of her daughters. They also beheaded them before her eyes and ordered her to give their bodies to the earth. Having buried her daughters, Sophia died right there, on a fresh grave. The significance of these saints is so great that they are considered the four essences of the spiritual world and identified with the four essences of the material world. It looks like this: earth is Faith, water is Hope, air is Love and light is knowledge. Sophia is identified with wisdom. These are eternal material and spiritual entities.

These names have such great meaning. Faith, Hope, Love and Sofia accept congratulations on the day of the angel at the beautiful time of the Indian summer. The Day of Remembrance of the Holy Courageous Persistent Women is celebrated once a year on September 30.

This is a faithful, sensible and purposeful person, in a word, the energy of the name is pure and positive, therefore it has always been popular, especially among the nobility in the 19th century.

True, you can read that Nadezhda can be adventurous and prudent, that she has a masculine character and always comes to her intended goal, that she is neither affectionate nor friendly and is always closed.
