Presbyter
Father Konstantin Vasilyevich Razumov was born in 1869 in the village of Golovinskoye, Bui district, Kostroma province. From 1890 to 1895, he served as a psalmist, was ordained deacon in 1895, and in 1904 was elevated to the rank of priest at the Assumption Monastery in the city of Kineshma. He served until the monastery's closure in 1924, and afterwards in the Kineshma cathedral. In the 1920s, he was arrested multiple times by the GPU; during his arrest in 1929, he explained that he had authority among the faithful. In 1933, returning to Kineshma, he lived with parishioners, where a small church was arranged, and served secretly. His visits to spiritual children became known to the NKVD.
On February 20, 1936, he was arrested. Along with him were Father Ioann Rumyantsev and others. They were taken to the Kineshma prison. Father Konstantin rejected the accusations of anti-Soviet agitation, asserting that he did not engage in counter-revolutionary activities. The investigator attempted to extract incriminating evidence, but the priest remained steadfast in his responses.
On July 15, 1937, Father Konstantin Razumov and Elizaveta Rumyantseva were sentenced to five years of exile in Kazakhstan, while Father Ioann Rumyantsev and Anna Serova were sentenced to five years in a corrective labor camp. Father Konstantin soon passed away in exile, and the others did not return from their imprisonment.
