Saint Moses the Wonderworker of the Kiev Caves

St. Moses the Wonderworker of the Kiev Caves (Feast Day - July 28)

Our Venerable Father Moses pursued asceticism at the Kiev Caves Lavra in the Far Caves of Theodosius in the 13th or 14th century. He wore chains and a heavy copper cross. He was also known for his constant psalmody and innumerable prostrations. Monk Moses possessed the gift of wonderworking. The relics of the Saint rest at the Far Caves.
