Saint Tikhon (born Vasily Ivanovich Bellavin) was born in the village of Klin in the Toropets district of Pskov province, into the family of a priest who was soon transferred to the district town after the birth of his son. From an early age, his father took him to church services, and this love for the temple became an inseparable part of his life.
