Life
Holy Faina is a saint named in some service books, with no life preserved in the source we rely on. The calendar page says only that her commemoration is listed in the Handbook for Clergy (Moscow, 1979, volume three) under 29 May (11 June, new style) and that her name is not included in the present Menologion of the Russian Church.
We have no other certain information about her place, time or life, so we add nothing.
