Commemorated on July 19
Saint Stephen was the son of prince St Lazar of Serbia (June 15). In the
terrible times of the Turkish Yoke St Stephen became the great
benefactor of his enslaved countrymen. He built up the city, constructed
churches and expended his treasury on the help of the needy. St Stephen
exceeded many rulers in his wisdom, his charity and his faith. He died
peacefully in the year 1427.
