Venerable Justin of Celije, a great theologian and monk, was a spiritual leader of the Celije Monastery and made a lasting impact on Orthodox tradition. Despite being removed from his post by the atheist regime, he dedicated himself to writing and service, celebrating the Divine Liturgy daily until his death. Born on Annunciation Day in 1894 in Vranje, his works encompass theological and philosophical writings in 33 volumes and 12 volumes of “The Lives of the Saints.” Saint Justin left a spiritual legacy and testament to have his works published, contributing to the building of the Celije Monastery.
