Anđa Sočica

Holy New Martyr Anđa Sočica was born in 1935 into the Sočica family of Piva, in Montenegro. In June 1943 she was eight years old, one of the twenty-⁠nine children of the Plužine group who suffered together.

With her of her kin were Cvijeta (born 1914), Bosiljka (1937), Radojka (1938), Stevan (1940) and Tomana (1890). Soldiers of the SS division "Handschar" shut them into the hut of Obren Gojković at Gojkovića Dol and set it on fire. Another Anđa, Anđa Luburić, escaped then and saw everything from a tree; she is not the same as the little Sočica girl.

The Serbian Orthodox Church glorified the martyrs of Piva on 24 May 2017, and Saint Anđa is commemorated on 24 May in the old style.
