Description
Our righteous father, hieromartyr Mitrophan Yang (Chinese Yang Ji 楊吉, some sources have Yang Jizhong or Yang Jisong) (1856-1900) was the first Chinese ordained a priest in the Church of China. He was one of the many martyrs of the Yihetuan Movement (Boxer) Uprising, whose collective feast day is June 11. Yang Ji, the future Mitrophan, was born, probably in Beijing, on January 17, 1856 into a family of Chinese Orthodox associated with Russian Orthodox Mission in China. His father died while he was very young, and he was raised by his mother Marina, who was a teacher at a school for girls, and his grandmother Ekaterina. Yang Ji grew to be a humble person who was cautious and quiet. He was peaceful in demeanor and was impassioned even when faced with great insults.
