Ὁ Ἅγιος Στέφανος ἔζησε στὴ Ρωσία κατὰ τὸν 11ο αἰώνα μ.Χ. καὶ ἀσκήτεψε στὴ Λαύρα τοῦ Κιέβου. Μετὰ τὴν κοίμηση τοῦ Ὁσίου Θεοδοσίου († 3 Μαΐου) ἔγινε ἡγούμενος τῆς ἱερᾶς μονῆς τῶν Σπηλαίων τοῦ Κιέβου. Ἀπὸ τὴ νέα αὐτὴ θέση ἦταν πολὺ δραστήριος καὶ φρόντισε μὲ ἐπιμέλεια γιὰ τὴν κτηριακὴ ὁλοκλήρωση τῆς μονῆς. Παράλληλα ὅμως φρόντιζε καὶ γιὰ τὴν πνευματικὴ αὔξηση τῶν μοναχῶν. Ὅρισε νὰ τελεῖται καθημερινὰ στὴ μονή, ἡ Θεία Λειτουργία ὑπὲρ ἀναπαύσεως τῶν μακαρίων κτιτόρων καὶ τῶν κεκοιμημένων ἀδελφῶν, καθὼς καὶ γιὰ τὴν σωτηρία τῶν ζώντων ἀδελφῶν καὶ ὅλων τῶν Ὀρθοδόξων Χριστιανῶν.If you like our project and you are satisfied with our work and effort, please consider making a donation that would help us to survive on the Internet and in further development of the project.
