Life
Holy Righteous Anna Jovanovich (seventeenth century), the mother of Saint Basil of Ostrog, after her husband's repose devoted the rest of her days to fasting and prayer, leading a gospel life as a Christian widow. Her resting place, at first lost, was wondrously found in 1936, and in 2023 her holy relics were found. She is commemorated on 13 May.
