About the Saint

Metropolitan Innocent, also known as Father John Veniaminov, is perhaps the greatest missionary of the Russian Orthodox church, and truly one of the ideal missionary examples within all Christian history.

During the 19th century, Innocent’s life and ministry left a lasting legacy on the growing missionary activity of the Russian Orthodox church. From the time of his departure to the Alaskan Islands in 1823, to the culmination of his priestly ministry as Metropolitan of Moscow (the highest clerical rank in the Russian church) in 1868, Innocent helped mold and influence the attitude of this church towards its apostolic ministry.

Saint's Prayer or Troparion

Prayer to St. Innocent - Apostle to America

Nov 26 and Feb 9

Saint of God, good pastor, faithful worker in the vineyard of Christ, Hierarch and Father, Innocent!

Look down upon this city and its people,

and pray to Christ our God to keep thy flock safe from the wolves that would destroy it:

may He send down His Holy Spirit to make us walk wisely before Him in all devotion and purity all the days of our life:

so that, glorifying His all-holy name day and night, we may be found worthy to be heirs also of life eternal,

and may praise the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages.

Amen.
