  • John the Hairy (Russian: Иоанн Власатый, also known as John the Merciful of Rostov) was a holy fool (Yurodivy), of the Russian Orthodox Church in the second half of the 16th century. He endured a great many trials in his lifetime. "He did not have a permanent shelter, and at times took his rest at the house of his spiritual Father, a priest at the church of the All-Holy, or with one of the aged widows." According to Orthodox Church in America sources, Blessed John, Living in humility, patience and unceasing prayer... spiritually nourished many people, among them St Irenarchus, Hermit of Rostov (January 13). After a long life of pursuing asceticism, he died on September 3, 1580 and was buried, according to his final wishes, beside the church of Saint Blaise beyond the altar. He had "hair upon his head abundantly," therefore he was called "Hairy." The title "Merciful" was given to Blessed John because of the many healings that occurred at his grave, and also in connection with the memory of the holy Patriarch John the Merciful (November 12), whose name he shared. John the Hairy is commemorated on November 12 in the Eastern Orthodox Church. The relics of the saint are in Rostov in the church in honor of Theotokos of Tolga, next to sanctuary are psalms and cupressus the cross belonging to the saint. (en)

  • Иоа́нн Росто́вский (Иоанн Милостивый, «Власатый»; нем. Johannes von Rostov, der Mildtätige; ум. 3 сентября 1581 (по другим данным, 1580), Ростов) — святой, ростовский блаженный, юродивый, родом, возможно, из Германии. Почитается в Православной церкви как чудотворец, память совершается (по юлианскому календарю): 3 сентября, 12 ноября и 23 мая (Собор Ростовских святых). Сведения о жизни Иоанна скудны, неизвестно как и когда он пришёл в Ростов. Проживал в доме священника Всехсвятской церкви, духовно окормлял горожан, в том числе и преподобного Иринарха Ростовского. Умер в Ростове 3 сентября 1581 года. Своё прозвание «милостивый» получил от исцелений, которые, по мнению верующих, происходили от его мощей, а также в память святого Иоанна Милостивого, патриарха Александрийского, чьё имя носил ростовский святой. Мощи святого находятся в Ростове в церкви в честь Толгской иконы Божией Матери, рядом с ракой находятся псалтырь и кипарисовый крест, принадлежавшие преподобному. (ru)
