Venerable Gregory left his wealthy family to embrace monastic life, facing temptations and threats from his own kin who sought to dissuade him. Enduring hardships and slander, he journeyed to Constantinople, then Rome, preaching against heresy and comforting the afflicted. He healed many through prayer. Gregory's life exemplified unwavering faith and devotion, even when facing persecution.

Let us pray to #Saint Gregory, that through his intercessions, we too may remain steadfast in our beliefs, and may be blessed with healing. May we always remain faithful to #Christ. #OrthodoxSaints #ChristianFaith #Monasticism
