At one time, his departure to become a monk was a real shock for the high society of St. Petersburg. He felt a craving for the Lord at the age of 12. From 1917 to 1918 he spent in the monastery of Savva Krypetsky. There he was arrested by a brigade of Latvians, who took him to be shot because of suspicion of his relation to the noble family. The monks pulled him out from under the bodies of the dead and dressed him in the overcoat of a Red Army soldier, and then sent him to St. Petersburg to his mother.
At the age of 25, he began clergy at the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. But in 1928, the Lavra was closed, and all the monks and clergy were exiled to Solovki. In 1934 he was released, but his freedom did not last long, since after 2 years he was arrested again. In conclusion, he went on a hunger strike. It lasted 44 days. After which the charge against him was dropped and he was allowed to work as the head physician in the prison. In 44 he escapes. Thanks to prayer, he traveled 11 thousand kilometers from Siberia.

Large numbers of people came to his sermons. They called the priest a “fiery preacher.” Then again there were persecutions and the Pskov-Pechersk monastery. He spent the last years of his life in Moscow. After the funeral, many pilgrims petitioned for his canonization, but the commission decided that he was not worthy of it.
Despite this, the number of pilgrims does not decrease. He is an example for them of fortitude and faith in Christ. He was shot, sent to camps, starved and did other terrible things, but he always accepted all the hardships of life with gratitude to God. Despite everything, he loved people, tried to help them and led them.
It is important to remember that regardless of whether you come to the grave of an idol or a relative, you are still in a cemetery and you should follow certain rules of behavior.
The Lord is always with you!

The work of Nikolo of the Arkhangelsk Columbarium
Nikolo Arkhangelsk Pogost is located in the Balashikha district and is one of the largest and most sought after. All types of burials are allowed here. The Nikolo Arkhangelsk Columbarium operates at the cemetery. Increasingly, relatives of the deceased are resorting to cremation and subsequent burial of ashes in urns. For these purposes, an area has been allocated in the cemetery for the burial of ashes in urns in the ground. The designated area is well maintained, and small headstones create a unified aesthetic appearance.
The graveyard is also equipped with niches for burying ashes in urns in an open and closed columbarium. The advantage of burying the deceased with their ashes is undeniable for both relatives and municipalities. The lack of territory in the churchyard makes the presence of the Nikolo Arkhangelsk Columbarium relevant. Urns with ashes do not take up much space either when buried in the ground or in niches. In addition, the environmental situation is improving. For relatives of the deceased, the benefits also include saving money on funeral costs and the possibility of further burial next to the existing tombstone.

It is impossible to find a grave: what to do
An effective search for graves by last name at the Nikolo-Arkhangelskoye Cemetery is possible only in the electronic database. This data will allow you to find out the site number, but the burial will have to be found by walking around the territory.
If a person cannot find the grave of a deceased relative by last name, then there are no other possibilities. Old-timers of the cemetery can provide guidance, but only if the deceased was a famous person or a person with an interesting past. It is especially difficult to find ancient burials that are more than 50 years old.
Graves are easily lost if there are no fences or monuments. That is why the cemetery administration recommends installing a slab with the deceased’s data or erecting a small monument in the form of an angel a year after burial. Such burials can be found even after a decade, but you need to know the site number.
Cost of grave search service:
- 2000 rub. — search by burial cadastre
- 1500 rub. — searching for a grave on the site and drawing up a map of the approach to the burial
How to order a grave search at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery:
- Please indicate your full name in the application form. the exact date of death of the buried person in the format (day-month-year of death)
