About Saint Paisios. Paisios was born in 1924 in Cappadocia and grew up in Greece. He became a monk on Mount Athos, where his small hermitage became a place of counsel for pilgrims from around the world. He died in 1994 and was glorified as a saint by the Ecumenical Patriarchate in 2015.
He is remembered for his humor, his gentleness, and the way he took the pain of visitors into his own prayer.
