This is a partiallist ofcanonisedsaints in theEastern Orthodox Church.
In Orthodoxy, a saint is defined as anyone who is inheaven, whether recognised here on earth, or not. By this definition,Adam and Eve,Moses, the variousprophets, andarchangels are all given the title ofSaint. Sainthood in the Orthodox Church does not necessarily reflect a moral model, but communion with God; there are many examples of people who lived in greatsin and became saints byhumility andrepentance: SaintsMary of Egypt,Moses the Ethiopian, andDismas, the repentant thief who was crucified withJesus Christ. Therefore, a more complete Orthodox definition of what a saint is, has to do with the way that saints, through their humility and their love of mankind, saved inside them the entire Church, and loved all people.
Orthodox belief states that Godreveals saints through answeredprayers and othermiracles. Saints are usually recognised by their local community, often by people who directly knew them. As their popularity grows they are often then recognised by the entire Church through theHoly Spirit. The wordcanonisation means that a Christian has been found worthy to have his name placed in the canon (official list) of saints of the Church. The formal process of recognition involves deliberation by asynod of bishops. Evidence of a virtuous life and prior local veneration of the saint are required for canonization.[1]
Because the Church shows no true distinction between the living and the dead, as the saints are considered to be alive inheaven, saints are referred to as if they are still alive, and arevenerated, notworshipped. They are believed to be able tointercede for the living forsalvation or other requests and help mankind either through direct communion with God or by personal intervention.
Some saints listed may also be a part of a larger group of saints also listed (particularly martyrs, such asSaint Laura of Córdoba and theMartyrs of Córdoba).
