Venerable Anthony of Iezeru, a shepherd turned monk, lived in a cave near the Iezeru River. He copied books and dedicated himself to prayer. His most well-known work is his translation of the Psalter. The Saint reposed around 1610.

Lord, may the prayers of Saint Anthony guide us to live in simplicity and devotion, illuminating our path with the light of your Gospel. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Monasticism #Iezeru
