Since ancient times, people have tried to learn more about “their” saint, so that, through imitation of him, they themselves could approach the ideal. Today, on the eve of St. Tatiana's day, let's talk about what we know about this name and the holy women who bore it.

So, her name was Tatyana...

It is interesting that the name Tatiana, Tatiana, despite its Roman origin, is considered traditionally Russian. In the same and in derivative forms it is common in many Slavic countries, but in the English-speaking world until the end of the twentieth century it was extremely rare.

Of course, the main merit in popularizing this name belongs to Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, who immortalized “Tatyana’s sweet ideal” in the novel “Eugene Onegin.” They say that before the appearance of this literary work, the name Tatyana was more peasant than noble, but soon the situation changed radically. The name Tatyana has become almost the most popular female name in Russia.

In his novel, Pushkin not only created a captivating female image, but for centuries to come he defined the model by which Russian women began to build their relationships with the opposite sex. But if Tatyana Larina’s initiative and her bold declaration of love to her chosen one are relevant for the secular worldview, then for the Orthodox, her line of behavior in the final part of the novel is more important. Her answer to Onegin, who is seeking the love of no longer a girl, but a noble lady, a princess, is kept in a strictly Christian spirit: “But I was given to another; I will be faithful to him forever.”

Having once chosen her path, Tatyana does not deviate from it, remaining faithful to what seems most important to her. This character trait of Tatiana is probably the most valuable Christian virtue endowed with the bearers of this name. Tatyana’s strong-willed qualities also find their application in the secular field. Leafing through the pages of the press, we will be surprised how many singers, actresses and athletes in our Fatherland bear this name. But it’s time to turn to church history, to those names that are sacred to every Christian.

The first to remember in terms of seniority is Saint Tatiana of Rome. It is gratifying to see how this name is returning to our daily lives.

The doors of the St. Tatiana Church at Moscow State University are open, and all students know that Student's Day is Tatiana's day, because it was on January 12 (new style 25) 1755, on the day of remembrance of the holy martyr Tatiana, that Empress Elizabeth Petrovna signed the Decree on the Foundation Moscow University. It is joyful to learn that universities in various cities of Russia are opening their own churches, and all of them are named in the name of the holy martyr Tatiana of Rome.

Tatyana's day - the power of faith and will

The life of Saint Tatiana is full of various miracles, surprising and terrifying, however, leaving them aside, let us turn to the two main moments of her life: her martyr’s testimony of faith in Christ and her earthly feat.

Born into a noble Roman family of secret Christians, Tatiana from childhood chose the path along which she consistently followed for the rest of her life. Having given up marriage, she devoted all her strength to church service, was appointed a deaconess in one of the Roman churches, fasted, prayed, cared for the sick, helped the needy, and thus served God.

Deaconess Tatiana was captured and, after much torment, killed during the reign of Emperor Alexander Sevier (222–235).

Tatyana's Day

For many centuries, the Orthodox Church honored only one Tatiana - Tatiana of Rome, but in the twentieth century everything changed. The persecutions for the faith that swept across the country revealed to the world a whole host of holy Tatian martyrs, and the first of them was the most high-born - the passion-bearer Grand Duchess Tatyana Nikolaevna, daughter of Emperor Nikolai Alexandrovich and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna.

The second oldest, she had the strongest will and strength of character. In their memoirs, her contemporaries often emphasize that it was Tatyana Nikolaevna who occupied a dominant position among the rest of the royal children.
People who knew her noted in her “an exceptional penchant for establishing order in life and a highly developed consciousness of duty.” Remembering her, Baroness S.K. Buxhoeveden wrote: “She had a mixture of sincerity, straightforwardness and perseverance, a penchant for poetry and abstract ideas. She was closest to her mother and was her and her father’s favorite. Absolutely devoid of pride, she was always ready to abandon her plans if “there was an opportunity to walk with her father, read to her mother, and do everything that was asked of her.”

Following the example of her Heavenly patroness, Grand Duchess Tatiana devoted most of her energy and time to helping those in need. So she initiated the creation in Russia of the “Committee of Her Imperial Highness Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna to provide temporary assistance to victims of military disasters,” which set itself the goal of providing assistance to persons who fell into need as a result of military circumstances.

During the First World War, after passing nursing exams, the senior princesses worked in the Tsarskoye Selo hospital. As a surgical nurse, Grand Duchess Tatyana Nikolaevna took part in complex operations and, when necessary, went to the infirmary every day, even on her name day.

Grand Duchess Tatyana Nikolaevna, along with all her sisters and brother, was brutally killed only because she was born into the royal family and remained faithful to her faith, her family and her Fatherland to the end.

Today, the calendar of the Russian Orthodox Church includes, together with Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna, nine more names of ascetics who testified their loyalty to Christ during the mass persecution of the Church in the 1930s.
The list of New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia is growing from year to year, and perhaps soon we will witness the glorification of other Tatians.

According to the official calendar of the Russian Orthodox Church, we honor the memory of the Venerable Martyr Tatiana on October 8/21, confessor Tatiana (Byakireva) on December 10/23; Venerable Martyr Tatiana (Gribkova) September 1/14; Martyr Tatiana (Grimblit) September 10/23, Martyr Tatiana (Egorova) December 10/23; Martyr (Tatiana Kushnir) in the Cathedral of New Martyrs; Venerable Martyr (Tatiana Fomicheva) November 20/December 3 and Venerable Martyr Tatyana (Chekmazova) September 28/October 11.

We know quite a lot about some, while about others only the most general information has reached us. But there is something in common that unites all these great women who, as we believe, stand at the Throne of God next to their Heavenly patroness - Saint Tatiana of Rome, and who repeated her feat centuries later here on Russian soil.

Reverend Martyr Tatiana (Gribkova), 1879-1937), whose memory is celebrated in the Cathedral of New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia and in the Cathedral of Butovo New Martyrs, was born into the family of a cab driver in the village of Shchukino, which has now become one of the Moscow districts.

In 1896, the girl entered the Kazan Golovinsky Convent, where she lived for almost thirty years, until the monastery was closed by the Bolsheviks. The novice Tatiana returned home and settled with her sister. In 1937, the young communist Kuznetsov, who rented a room in the Gribkovs’ house, reported Tatyana to the authorities, accusing her of not only “doing handicrafts—quilting blankets,” but also hosting a lot of people, including “monastic audiences,” “has good acquaintances with the highest clergy,” and, an absolutely fantastic accusation, “she still has gold reserves, since in the first years of the revolution she collected gold to help Tsar Nicholas.” Despite the testimony of a false witness, the novice was not arrested immediately, but a little later. Tatiana responded negatively to all accusations during interrogations and did not admit guilty of counter-revolutionary activities. However, the NKVD troika in the Moscow region sentenced her to death precisely for “anti-Soviet agitation.” Novice Tatiana was shot at the Butovo training ground near Moscow and buried in an unknown mass grave on September 14, 1937.

From the life of this saint we can only glean indirect information about her character and the life she lived. She spent many years in the monastery, and was passionately worried about everything that happened to the clergy and laity during the years of persecution. Having left the ruined monastery, she tried to preserve the way of monastic life in the world and, in order not to embarrass her family, continued to work from home. Having suffered on earth from the hard-heartedness of her neighbors, the novice Tatiana received the crown of martyrdom from the hands of the Savior.

We know much more about the martyr Tatiana (Grimblit).

Martyr Tatiana was born on December 14, 1903 in the city of Tomsk in the family of an employee, received a Christian upbringing in the family, and education at the Tomsk gymnasium. After the death of her father, having barely graduated from school herself, she went to work as a teacher at the Klyuchi children's colony.

During the difficult years of the civil war and repression, she made it a rule that almost all the money she earned, as well as what she managed to collect in the churches of the city of Tomsk, was exchanged for food and things and transferred to those prisoners of the Tomsk prison for whom no one else cared. Tatiana found out from the administration which prisoners were not receiving food parcels and passed them on to them. This is how she met many prominent bishops and priests of the Russian Orthodox Church who were languishing in prisons in Siberia.

For helping prisoners, Tatyana herself was repeatedly imprisoned on charges of counter-revolutionary activities. She was quickly released from prison, but such selfless activity irritated the punishers more and more, and they began to collect information for her final arrest.

Deciding that she “has connections with the counter-revolutionary element of the clergy,” she was deported to Turkestan, but was soon released again. Tatyana Nikolaevna went to Moscow and settled near the Church of St. Nicholas in Pyzhi, where she began to sing in the choir. Returning from prison, she was even more active in helping the suffering.

When Tatyana Nikolaevna was again sent into exile, she studied medicine right in the camp and began working as a paramedic. After her quick release, she settled in the Vladimir region, worked in a hospital, continued to help prisoners and conduct active correspondence with them. These letters were sometimes the only consolation of her correspondents, who did not know how to thank Tatiana Nikolaevna for her support to the prisoners who remained in exile and in prison, many of whom she now knew personally. “In the feat of mercy and help, reliability and breadth of this help, she had no equal. In her heart, which contained Christ, no one was crowded,” writes Abbot Damascene (Orlovsky) about her.

In September 1937, NKVD officers broke off this correspondence mid-sentence - Tatiana Nikolaevna went to prison without having time to finish writing another letter.

The confession of the martyr Tatiana and the main words in which her whole life was concentrated was her answer during interrogation: “I have never carried out any anti-Soviet agitation anywhere. In response to phrases when, pitying me, they told me: “You would better dress and eat better than send money to someone,” I answered: “You can spend money on beautiful clothes and a sweet piece, but I prefer to dress more modestly, eat more simply, and send the remaining money to those who need it.”

Tatyana Nikolaevna Grimblit was shot on September 23, 1937 and buried in an unknown mass grave at the Butovo training ground near Moscow.

Tatiana Prokopyevna Egorova, martyr Tatiana Kasimovskaya, was born on January 15, 1879 in the village of Giblitsy, Kasimovsky district, Ryazan province, into a poor peasant family. Tatiana Prokopyevna did not learn to read and write; before the revolution, she was engaged in the textile trade with her parents and husband. In 1932, the Egorovs’ farm was confiscated, and they themselves were expelled from the collective farm. My husband and two sons had to leave to work in Moscow. They never came home again.

Tatyana Prokopyevna was arrested as an “active churchwoman” in November 1937.

As in all previous cases, the investigation tried in vain to convince Tatyana Prokopyevna that she was an active counter-revolutionary, without providing any evidence. The 58-year-old peasant woman rejected all the accusations, refused to sign the protocol, and uttered amazing words: “Jesus endured, and I, too, will endure and endure, I’m ready for anything.”

The "troika" of the NKVD in the Ryazan region sentenced Tatyana Prokopyevna Egorova to death.

Martyr Tatiana (Tatiana Ignatievna Kushnir) was born in 1889 in the Chernigov province into a peasant family. She was arrested and sentenced to two years in prison and sent to Karaganda; in 1942, among a large group of women believers, she was shot by the verdict of the Karaganda Regional Court.

Novice Tatiana (Fomicheva) was born in 1897 into a peasant family in the village of Nadovrazhnoe near the town of Istra near Moscow. At a fairly early age, in 1916, she entered a monastery as a novice. When, after the revolution, the Boris and Gleb Monastery, where she had attended obedience, was closed, she returned to her parents.

In 1931, the authorities began to persecute monks and nuns of closed monasteries, because, even living in the world, they tried to adhere to the monastic rules. So the OGPU created a “case” against the nuns of the Holy Cross Monastery in the Podolsk region. Several sisters did not leave the monastery, in the buildings of which the rest house was located, some of them got a job in this rest house, some settled in neighboring villages and did handicrafts. Everyone went to the Elijah Church in the village of Lemeshevo to pray. The choir at the temple also consisted of nuns and novices of closed monasteries. Among others, novice Tatiana Fomicheva sang in the choir.

In May 1931, authorities arrested seventeen nuns and novices who had settled near the closed Holy Cross Monastery. The novice Tatiana also ended up in prison. She spent the period from 1931 to 1934 in a forced labor camp. Having been freed, Tatiana settled in the village of Sheludkovo, Volokolamsk region, where she helped Archpriest Vladimir at the Trinity Church, was arrested with him in 1937, and categorically refused to confirm the investigators’ accusations, not wanting to incriminate anyone. Father Vladimir was shot, novice Tatiana was sentenced to ten years in a forced labor camp. There her earthly life ended.

It is amazing with what courage these modest, middle-aged peasant women, novices, who devoted their entire lives to helping their neighbors, who worked in difficult conditions of hunger and devastation, faced the lies, slander, and threats thrown at them in the face. They went to their death, firmly believing that they were going towards Christ. May God grant us, in our peaceful and calm times, to have at least a drop of such sincere and firm faith.

Saints Tatiana, pray to God for us!

Attention, TODAY only!

The name Tatyana is often found not only in Russian-speaking regions, but also in foreign countries. Many parents call their daughters this for various reasons. Perhaps the reason for the popularity of this name lies in its roots.

History of the origin of the name

According to the church calendar, Tatiana’s name day is celebrated three times a year. On January 18, Tatiana the Reverend is glorified, on January 25 - Tatiana of Rome, on October 3, all Tatianas also celebrate their holiday. On January 25, Tatyana celebrates Orthodox and Catholic name days. And this is connected with the story of Tatyana Rimskaya, whose father was an influential Roman, but for some reason converted to Christianity. Tatiana, in the name of Jesus Christ, completely renounced worldly life and marriage. For her special devotion to the church, she was given the rank of deaconess. This meant that she could serve as pastor. During the reign of the emperor, Christians were persecuted. This fate did not spare Tatiana of Rome either.
