Saint Zosimas of Palestine (5th century AD) was a holy monk and priest whose life intertwined with that of Saint Mary of Egypt, one of the Church’s greatest penitents. Living in a desert monastery by the Jordan, he followed the strictest ascetic life until a divine revelation led him to encounter Mary during Lent. She revealed to him her story of sin and repentance, and through his priestly ministry, she received Holy Communion before her death. Their meeting is one of the most profound moments of grace in Christian monastic history.
Venerated by the Eastern Orthodox, Coptic Orthodox, Melkite Greek Catholic, Coptic and Syriac Catholic, and Roman Catholic Churches, Saint Zosimas is honored as a model of obedience, humility, and spiritual discernment.
