Vol. 59, No. 3 (350) May–June, 2023
Bishop Nicholas (Ziorov)
Missionary and Spiritual Writer
This issue of The Orthodox Word features a biography of Bishop
Nicholas (Ziorov), who served as the Russian Orthodox bishop in America
during the last years of the nineteenth century. Little has hitherto
been written in English about this fervent missionary and keen observer
of American life of that period. Several fellow laborers in Christ’s
field, who worked under his guidance, have since been glorified as
saints of the Orthodox Church: St. Sebastian Dabovich, St. Alexis Toth,
St. Raphael Hawaweeny, and New Hieromartyrs Anatole (Kamensky), John
Kochurov, and Alexander Khotovitsky.
We also present the continuation of the commentary of St. Nikodemos of Mount Athos on the Epistle of St. James.

He is one of sixteen new saints who are being canonized by the Romanian Orthodox Church during 2025.
We also present the continuation of the commentary of St. Nikodemos of Mount Athos on the Epistle of St. James.

Nativity of the Mother of God, located on an island in Lake Ladoga in
northern Russia. St. Arsenius, who reposed in the mid-fifteenth century,
was one of several Russian saints who spent time on Mount Athos and
brought his experience back to benefit his homeland. The recent history
