The Church celebrates the memory of the Martyrs Akakios, Quadratus and Maximus, and Saint Nilus the Myrrh-gusher of Mount Athos.
Saint Nilus the Myrrh-gusher came from Agios Petros of Kynouria in the Peloponnese. Saint Nilus lived in asceticism at the Monastery of Great Lavra during the 17th century AD. In fact, many times, for reasons of greater practice and spiritual diligence, he left for the hermitages in the remote sites of Mount Athos.
His body remained buried for 150 years in the cave site, where he lived in asceticism.
It should be noted that the uncovering and the translation of the relics of Saint Nilus is commemorated today, while the memory of Saint is celebrated on November 12.
