Martha Dudarenko

Holy Martyr Martha Dudarenko was born in 1885 in the Poltava province. In 1939 she was arrested and sentenced to three years of labour camp. In 1942 Martha Ivanovna was arrested again in Karlag, where she was serving her sentence, in the group case of the Venerable Martyr Evdokia (Andrianova), and was sentenced to death by shooting. Soon the sentence was carried out.

She was numbered among the New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia at the Jubilee Council of Bishops in the year 2000, for veneration throughout the Church. She is commemorated on the movable day around 7 February, in the new style, in the Synaxis of the New Martyrs and Confessors of the Russian Church.
