Saint Methodius

Saint Methodius was a 9th-century Byzantine scholar and theologian. He, along with his brother Cyril, created the Glagolitic alphabet, which was the first way to write the Slavic languages, helping more people read and understand Christianity. They also translated important religious texts into Old Church Slavonic, making faith more accessible. His work promoted cultural and religious identity among Slavic peoples and played a crucial role in the spread of Christianity across Eastern Europe. Saint Methodius is remembered as a gifted scholar and a key figure in the Christianization of the Slavic world.
