Today we remember Archpriest John Kochurov, a devoted missionary and priest who served both in America and Russia. He was the first clergy martyr of the Russian Revolution, giving his life in faith and love for his flock. Father John’s life was marked by deep pastoral care, missionary zeal, and steadfast faith. From his early years in Russia to his missionary work in America, and finally his return to Russia, his dedication to the Church remained unwavering until his martyrdom in 1917.
