"The Nativity Forty-day Fast represents the fast undertaken by Moses, who, having fasted for forty days and forty nights, received the Commandments of God, written on stone tablets. And we, fasting for forty days, will reflect upon and receive from the Virgin, the living Word - not written upon stone - but born, incarnate, and we will commune of His Divine Body." - St. Symeon of Thessaloniki 2 Likes

Holy Cross Orthodox Monastery East meets West in Saint Olaf of Norway and Novgorod:
"One of the most popular hiking routes in Europe will soon expand into Russia to include Veliky Novgorod, where St. Olaf II, the 11th century ruler of Norway, lived for a time in exile.
"As the Regional Ministry of Investment Policy page reported in late October, an agreement was reached in Finland by which the popular pilgrimage and tourist path St. Olaf’s Trail will expand to include Veliky Novgorod, and the tour company Novgorod Rus’ will be the coordinator of the 'Route of St. Olaf in the Novgorod Province' project.
"Every year, hundreds of thousands of people follow St. Olaf’s Trail, which requires about 25 days to cover, passing over land and water. It has been proposed to begin the Novgorod leg of the trail at Yaroslav’s Court where there was a Church of St. Olaf until the 14th century....
"St. Olaf’s Trail is currently about 370 miles long, passing through Sweden and Norway, with places historically connected with the life of St. Olaf (995-1030), the King of Norway from 1015 to 1028, one of the most revered Scandinavian saints. The trail ends at the Gothic Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim in northern Norway where, according to tradition, St. Olaf was buried.
"St. Olaf contributed to the spread of Christianity in Norway and is one of, if not the last common saint between Eastern and Western Christianity.
"Churches were dedicated to St. Olaf in Russia in Novgorod and Staraya Ladoga. The Church of St. Olaf in Novgorod was built by Swedish merchants in the 12th century and remained until the 14th century....
"During excavations of the St. Nicholas Cathedral at Yaroslav’s Court in Novgorod in 2007, a 15th-century seal with the image of St. Olaf was discovered. In Scandinavian sources, this church is mentioned in the saga 'The Miraculous Healing of a Mute Slave in the Church of St. Olaf in Holmgard'...."
