Author Biography

The monks who came to Holy Trinity Monastery from Eastern Europe after World War II inherited a tradition of printing that stretches back almost to the invention of the printing press in the fifteenth century. Through the fathers’ tireless efforts, the monastery has been printing and publishing Orthodox Christian books for almost sixty-five years. In keeping with the humble spirit required of a monk, books which are written or prepared by members of the monastic brotherhood are published under the general authorship of Holy Trinity Monastery.

St. Nicholas of Myra is one of the best-known and most popular saints of the Christian Church. It is from the stories of this early Christian Bishop that the modern figure of Fr. Christmas has been derived. This work contains all the liturgical texts specifically for the Feast day of St. Nicholas on December 6, as used by the Orthodox Church. There is also a devotional hymn in his honor and an extended prayer asking for his help. A short life is also included followed by an account of some of the miracles worked through the prayers of the saint after his death.
