Biography
Василий Викторович Гурьев was a Christian minister who devoted himself to spiritual leadership and pastoral care in Russia during the early Soviet era. He continued his ministry despite increasing state pressure against religious institutions and practitioners.
He was executed at the Butovo firing range in 1937 during the Great Purge, joining countless other clergy members who were killed for their faith during this period of systematic persecution.
