Teodor Komogovinski

Saint and Holy Martyr Theodore of Komogovo[1][2] (Serbian: свети мученик Теодор (Сладић) комоговински,[3] Teodor Komogovinski; 18th century) is a Serbian Orthodox saint (holy martyr), who served as a monk in the monasteries of Komogovina and Moštanica.

When the Ottomans burned Moštanica, they killed many monks, including Teodor whom they burnt alive in 1788 after he refused to renounce his Christian faith, as well as many Serbs from surrounding villages.

The saved hand was moved to Komogovina monastery, where it was by the beginning of World War II.

During holidays and prayer days, the Holy hand was carried over to Komogovina so that faithful people could bow to this martyr.

The Holy Assembly of Bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church on 20 May 1966 under AS number 28, record 44 took a decision: "Insert into the list of all Serbs holy martyrs for faith and St. Theodor (Sladić) martyr from Komogovina, therewith to be mentioned on the day of Theodor's Saturday".
