• Saints are considered not only people who
have dedicated their lives to a righteous
life, but also those who have high feelings:
love for the Motherland, indomitable will,
courage and valor. I believe that we have
proved the hypothesis.
• Alexander Nevsky – a national hero,
Christian ruler, great commander,
guardian of the Orthodox faith and
freedom of the people, defender of the
Russian land. The younger generation
should learn from his exploits.
