Life

Two priests of the Perm land, Nicholas Matsievsky and Theodore Antipin, served in the same parish of Yum, at the church of the Nativity of Christ. Nicholas, born in 1872 into a noble family, had studied at the Kazan seminary, became a deacon in 1897 and a priest in 1902, and came to Yum in 1916. Theodore, born in 1868 into a peasant family, graduated from a teachers' seminary, was ordained priest in 1903, and from 1909 was rector at Yum. Both were shot by the Bolsheviks on 24 January 1919.
