Alexander Of Comana Life story
Saint Alexander of Comana, known as "the charcoal burner", was Bishop of Comana in Pontus. Whether he was the first to occupy that see is open to discussion. The saint's curious name comes from the fact that he had, out of humility, taken up the work of burning charcoal, so as to escape worldly honors.
