Saint Alexius, who was born in 1875 in the village of Dofnary, Brest-Litovsk district, was destined to undergo many trials. He served as a psalmist, deacon, and priest in various churches, including in the village of Ignatovo. In 1937, he was arrested on charges of counter-revolutionary activity and sentenced to death. The execution of Priest Alexius took place on December 3, 1937, at the Butovo firing range, where he was subsequently buried in a mass grave.
