St. Clement was born in the southwestern part of the Bulgarian Empire, in the region then known as Kutmichevitsa. He was a member of the group of missionary priests that included Naum, Sava, Gorazd, and Angelar who supported the Apostles to the Slavs evangelizing in middle Europe. Having rejected German missionaries from the Western Church who required the use of Latin as the liturgical language, Prince Rastislav of Great Moravia requested Constantinople to send missionaries who could preach the Word of God in the Slavonic language. Arriving in Moravia as ascetics led by Cyril and Methodius, Clement and his fellow missionaries evangelized the Slavic tribes in the Slavonic language, using the Glagolitic alphabet devised by Cyril.
