The patron saints of Serbian Orthodox Christianity are primarily St. Sava, celebrated on January 27, and St. Nicholas, celebrated on December 19. St. Sava is revered as the founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church and is a key figure in Serbian national identity. Other important saints include St. John the Baptist and St. George, whose feast days are celebrated on January 20 and May 6, respectively. These celebrations often involve religious ceremonies, cultural events, and community gatherings.
Any of the Saints recognized by the Serbian Orthodox Church may be a Patron Saint. According to Serbian custom, when a family received holy baptism, they put themselves under the protection of the Saint on whose commemoration day they were baptized. That Saint was the family Patron Saint, and the family celebration of the Patron Saint's holiday - Krsna Slava - is considered one of the most important expressions of the family's Orthodox faith.
Slava, also called Krsna Slava or Krsno Ime (literally Christened Name), is traditional serbian celebration of family's own patron saint. Serbs are Orthodox Christians.
