On November 11, 2017, the national holiday of Avramy Ovchar and Anastasia Ovechnitsa is celebrated. Believers on this day remember the venerable martyr Anastasia the Roman and the venerable Avramius the hermit. In the common people, they were nicknamed the Sheepdog and the Sheepwoman, as it is believed that they protect the flocks of sheep and patronize the shepherds.

The parents of Anastasia the Romans died when she was 3 years old. She was brought up in a monastery, where she accepted monasticism. At the age of 21, Emperor Decius was in power. Glory about the beauty of Anastasia intkbbee spread throughout Rome. Many rich and noble Romans came to ask for her hands, but, being refused, they left with nothing.

Emperor Decius began the persecution of Christians, and the pagans, following his decree, brought Anastasia to trial before the governor of the city. Accused of serving the Lord God and philanthropy for the noble Romans, asking for her hand, she appeared before Provos.

He tried to force her to renounce her faith and sacrifice to pagan idols, but was refused. Without breaking the will of the girl, Prov ordered her to be subjected to bodily torture: removing nails by pulling out, cutting off her arms and legs, knocking out her teeth. Despite the torment, Anastasia continued to pray. The military leader Prov ordered her tongue to be cut off so as not to hear prayers, but this did not break the spirit of the martyr. Then she was beheaded.

Abramius lived in the 4th century and from childhood he loved to read bible books. Having reached adolescence, he wanted to go to the monastery, but his parents insisted on his marriage. A week later, he secretly left his wife and settled in a deserted cell. The parents managed to find their son, but Abraham begged them to leave him in solitude and seclusion.

After some time, the bishop of the city found out about the saint and, having summoned him, decided to send him to one of the cities where not a single church person could convert the pagans to the Christian faith. The bishop was able to persuade Abramius, and he was able to understand the pagans in the faith of God.

Having fulfilled his duty, the saint again retired to his cell. Once he was brought up to raise a 7-year-old niece Maria. He taught her writing, reading, prayers and many other things. Having reached the age of majority, Mary succumbed to the seduction of a man who came to Abraham for advice. Ashamed of her act, she fled from her uncle, came to a distant city and, settling in a hotel, indulged in an impious life. Having learned about this and dressed in the clothes of a warrior, Avramius went in search of the lost soul. Finding her, he revealed himself to her during dinner and convinced her to repentance. Mary returned home with her uncle and spent her time in fasting, prayer, and labor. For her repentance, the Lord rewarded her with the gift of healing diseases. Having made another righteous deed, Avramius returned to a reclusive life and soon died.

On this day, the people organized a Sheep Festival: the shepherds sang and played the horns, congratulated their flocks on the last day of grazing. The owners pay off the shepherds, who are not only given money, but also give gifts, treat them with scrambled eggs.

On this day, the sheep are sheared for the last time.

According to popular beliefs, if it started raining today, then winter will come soon. Wolves in packs roam the fields - to be starvation, epidemic or other misfortune.
