Memorial Day is November 12.
Saints Stefan Milutin, king of Serbia, his brother Dragutin (as a Theocateist monk) and their mother Helen.
Saint Stephen was the youngest son of King Stephen - Urosh I and the grandson of King Stephen who was crowned first (September 24). He ruled Serbia from 1275 to 1320. Stefan Miliutin received the throne from his elder brother Dragutin, a faithful Christian, who after a short reign transferred the power to his brother, and he, after falling in love with the nuns, secluded himself in Serem, where he performed secret exploits in a grave he dug with his own hands. In his righteous life Saint Dragutin worked hard to convert the Bogomil heretics to the true faith. His death followed on March 2, 1316.
Saint Stefan Milutin, after becoming king, by courage, words and deeds, often with weapons in hand, protected the Orthodox Serbs and other peoples of the same faith from many enemies. Stephen Haddock did not forget to thank God for all his benefits. He built more than 40 churches, many monasteries and hospices. The saint took special care of the Athonite monasteries.
When the Serbian kingdom fell, the monasteries remained centers of national culture and orthodoxy among the Serbian people. Saint Stephen died on October 29, 1320 and was buried in Bath Abbey. Two years later his incorrupt remains were discovered.
Saint Helena, the pious mother of her holy sons, after the death of her husband, devoted her whole life to the works of God: she built houses for poor villagers, and founded monasteries for those who wanted to live in purity and virginity. Near the city of Spicha she founded the river monastery and gave it land. Before her death, Saint Helena accepted the nuns and went to the Lord on February 8, 1306.
