Venerable Abramius, Abbot of Mirozh, Pskov
Today we remember Saint Abramius, the founder and first abbot of the Mirozh Monastery in Pskov. This monastery, established around 1156, was the first monastic community brought to Pskov from Kiev. Saint Abramius worked alongside Saint Niphon, Bishop of Novgorod, to build the monastery and the church of the Transfiguration of the Lord. Though little is known about his life, his legacy endures through the monastery and the ancient frescoes discovered there.
