List Of Serbian Saints
This is a list of saints of the Serbian Orthodox Church. List The Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC) venerates all Eastern Orthodox saints, regardless of ethnic background (e.g. John the Baptist, Maximus the Greek and Nicholas II of Russia). However, this list specifically includes saints who were either of Serbian descent and/or members of the SOC (or one of its historical predecessors, e.g. Serbian Patriarchate of Peć). Listed below are only those officially recognised by the SOC. Folk saints not yet canonised by the Church (e.g. Patriarch Pavle, Milica Rakić and Thaddeus of Vitovnica) are not included.
