08 — Veneration

Laura’s cult, relics, and feast, and her place in the modern Orthodox reception of the pre-schism Western saints. Her cult is real and continuous; her detailed relic-history is devotional tradition — and her commemoration among the Orthodox is an instance of the recovery of the saints of the undivided Western Church.
