Saint Paul the Obedient of the Kiev Caves

St. Paul the Obedient of the Kiev Caves (Feast Day - September 10)

Venerable Paul the Obedient was an ascetic in the Far Caves at Kiev. Upon assuming the monastic schema at the Kiev Caves Lavra, the monk underwent very burdensome obediences without a murmur, which the monastery’s abbot assigned to him.

He was never idle, and when he was not at an obedience, he ground the grain under the millstone, wearing down his body by this heavy work and attaining uncesing inner prayer. The Church honors his memory on September 10, on the day of his namesake Saint Paul, Bishop of Nicaea.

Support the Mystagogy Resource Center

For more than fifteen years, the Mystagogy Resource Center has been a labor of love dedicated to making the riches of the Orthodox Christian tradition freely available to people throughout the world.

Thousands of articles, translations, lives of saints, theological reflections, historical resources, and daily materials have been published across this ministry’s websites, all offered free of charge for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Orthodox faith.

This is a one-man ministry that requires countless hours of research, translation, writing, editing, and maintenance each day.

If this work has spiritually benefited, educated, encouraged, or inspired you in any way, I humbly ask you to consider supporting this ministry financially.

Generous annual and monthly benefactors make possible the continuation and expansion of this work for the future, for without such support this ministry cannot exist.

Every contribution, whether large or small, truly makes a difference and is deeply appreciated. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and prayers.
