Life
Holy Martyr John Sokardin is numbered among the New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia. The Azbyka page says nothing about his life, only the name, the title of martyr and the commemoration. The Church honours him on the movable day of the Synaxis of the New Martyrs and Confessors of the Russian Church, which falls on 7 February or on the Sunday nearest to that date.
