🔥 Why this name?!
This day is named in honor of the Methodist superintendent, Alexander Kuum! (Kuum means "hot" in Estonian). He was an inspiring man of faith who lead the Estonian Methodist Church during the Soviet occupation. His refusal to surrender to the demands of the communist authorities lead to him being sentenced to 25 years in a Siberian prison camp. By God's grace, with the death of Stalin Alexander Kuum was released after serving only 4 years and he returned to continue leading the Church. His example of courage and commitment to God is an inspiration.
