Eastern Orthodox liturgy

calendar introduced by Julius Caesar in 45 BC

The Eucharist ( ; from , ), also called Holy Communion, the Blessed Sacrament or the '''Lord's Supper''', is a Christian rite, considered a sacrament in most churches and an ordinance in others. Christians believe that the rite was instituted by Jesus Christ at the Last Supper, the night before his crucifixion, giving his disciples bread and wine. Passages in the New Testament state that he commanded them to "do this in memory of me" while referring to the bread as "my body" and the cup of wine as "the blood of my covenant, which is poured out for many".

specific tradition of Christian liturgy

Right-Believing (, , ), also called under the prefix The most Orthodox, is an Orthodox saint title for monarchs who were canonized for having lived a righteous life. They do not belong to martyrs or passion bearers. The saint title was initially given to Byzantine Emperors and their wives by the Patriarchate of Constantinople in the period of Ecumenical Councils, but other local Orthodox churches later took that tradition, including the Russian Orthodox Church. Russian Right-Believing princes include Andrey Bogolyubsky, Davyd Yuryevich, Alexander Nevsky, and Dmitry Donskoy.
