In Eastern Christianity, a passion bearer (Russian: -


, tr. strastoterpets; IPA: [strsttrpts]) is one
of the various customary titles for saints used in com-
memoration at divine services when honouring their feast
on the Church Calendar; it is not generally used in the
Latin Church.[1]
The term can be dened as a person who faces his or her
death in a Christ-like manner. Unlike martyrs, passion
bearers are not explicitly killed for their faith, though they
hold to that faith with piety and true love of God. Thus,
although all martyrs are passion bearers, not all passion
bearers are martyrs.
