Saturday Saints- #96

December 20, 2015

The Letter “O” gets its turn in the ongoing series about the saints. Today’s saint is one who lived an interesting life, to say the least, Olga of Kiev:

Saint Olga (Old Church Slavonic: ÐлÑга, born c. 890 died 11 July 969, Kiev) was a ruler of Kievan Rus’ as regent (945âc. 963) for her son, Svyatoslav.

A few quick facts about her:

  • She was born and raised a pagan, and converted decades into her life.
  • Marriage proposals to Olga could be a risky business, both for oneself and one’s people.
  • She is the grandmother of Vladimir the Great, who Christianized the kingdom of Rus.

I would encourage my readers to learn more about her at her wiki, located here.
