Matrona Dimitrijevna Nikonova
Matrona Dimitrijevna Nikonova, canonized by the Russian Orthodox Church, is celebrated as a saint within the church's contemporary narrative. Her life and purported miracles have been enshrined in the church’s teachings, particularly during the post-Soviet era. The portrayal of her as a figure of comfort and hope during World War II has become emblematic of the church's efforts to rehabilitate historical narratives connected to Soviet leaders, including Joseph Stalin.
