How do you find your family's saint?
The Serbian Orthodox mainly have family saint days (or 'Slava') which is when the family became Christian, and they adopt that saint's name for their Slava celebrations. For example, if the family became Christian on 20 January (old calendar) they would celebrate St John the Baptist as their family's patron saint. Other Orthodox Christians have individual name days for each person (not for the family) based on which saint's name they were given at their Baptism. For example, a person baptised with the name Paul would celebrate on St Paul's Day on 29 July, or a person baptised with the name Barbara would celebrate on St Barbara's Day on 4 December.
