StCyril&MethodiusMonument.Mt.Radhost.450

Cyril and Methodist Monument on Mt. Radhost, Czech Republic. St. Cyril did not invent the Cyrillic alphabet (one of his disciples did, and named it for him). But in his work of translation of the Bible and liturgy, he developed an alphabet still used in Russian and Serbian churches, known as Old Church Slavonic. Meanwhile Methodius, who outlived his brother, had great missionary success.
