Spasa of Višni

Holy Righteous Spasa of Višni is commemorated together with Spase, according to tradition her brother. According to tradition the two were orphaned siblings who fled from the Turks and settled in hard-⁠to-⁠reach places. Spasa struggled in a cave church at Višni, where she also reposed.

Long after her death, on a sleepless night, the saint appeared to a woman named Maria, a Christian of Belica who was bedridden, and told her to tell the people of Višni to gather her bones, for she had no rest. After a second appearance Maria gained an unusual strength and, together with her brother, set out through the darkness to find the relics. While she was wrapping them to carry them to the village church, she was filled with joy, and her stiff body became light and nimble. The Synod of the Macedonian Orthodox Church entered her in the diptychs on 11 April 2024.
