Saint Alban of Verulamium, Protomartyr of Britain

Commemorated June 22/July 5

Dmitry Lapa

We firmly believe that the very name of St. Alban predetermined that he became one of the symbols and chief patrons of this country. Let us hope and pray that through his intercession the ancient faith and spirituality will be restored in this ancient Orthodox Christian land.
