Right-believing John the Prince of Uglich, Tonsured As Ignatius, Vologda
The holy Prince John of Uglich was a devout and God-fearing
Christian from his youth. He and his brother Demetrius were thrown into
prison by their uncle John, and remained there for thirty-two years.
Before his death, Prince John received monastic tonsure with the name Ignatius. He was known as a wonderworker.
