Remembering Venerable Nίkander Wonderworker of Pskov
Today we remember Venerable Nίkander, a monk and wonderworker from Pskov who lived in the 16th century. Born Nikon in 1507, he embraced a life of asceticism and prayer, enduring many trials in the wilderness. Saint Nίkander was known for his deep humility, spiritual gifts, and care for those who sought his counsel. He passed away in 1581 during a time of invasion, leaving behind a legacy of holiness and a monastery established at the place of his prayerful struggle.
