Forsaking Persia, he withdrew to the city of Nisibis (in Mesopotamia), where he was baptized in one of the monasteries, and also received the monastic tonsure. Fleeing the ill-will of some of the monks, Saint Dometius moved to the monastery of Saints Sergius and Bacchus in the city of Theodosiopolis. In this monastery, Saint Dometius was ordained to deaconate, but when the archimandrite decided to have him made a presbyter, the saint, considering himself unworthy, hid on a desolate mountain in Syria, in the region of Cyrrhus. Stories about him constantly spread among the local inhabitants. They began to come to him for healing and for help. Many pagans were brought to faith in Christ by Dometius. And one time, in the locality where Saint Dometius struggled with his disciples, the emperor Julian the Apostate (361-363) arrived, traveling on his campaign against the Persians. By order of the emperor, soldiers found Saint Dometius praying with his disciples in a cave, and walled them up alive inside.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venerable Pimen the Much-Ailing of the Kyiv Near Caves <\/strong>is also commemorated on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oca.org\/saints\/lives\/2022\/08\/07\">August 7<\/a>. This Ukrainian ascetic was both born and grew up sickly, but his illness preserved him from illness of the soul. For a long time, he besought his parents to send him to the Kyiv Caves monastery. When they brought their son to the famed monastery, they then began to pray for him to be healthy. But the sufferer himself, conscious of the high value of suffering, instead asked the Lord both for the continuation of his sickness, and also his tonsuring into monasticism. One night, radiant angels appeared in the guise of monks and tonsured him. They told him that he would receive his health only on the day of his death. Several of the brethren heard the sound of singing, and coming to Saint Pimen, they found him attired in monastic garb. In his hand, he held a lit candle, and his tonsured hair could be seen in the crypt of Saint Theodosius. Saint Pimen spent many years in sickness so that those attending to him could not tolerate it. They often left him without food and water for two or three days at a time, but he endured everything with joy. Compassionate towards the brethren, Saint Pimen healed a certain crippled brother, who promised to serve him until death if he were healed. But after a while, the brother grew lax in his service, and his former ailment overtook him. Saint Pimen again healed him with the advice, that both the sick and those attending the sick receive an equal reward. Saint Pimen spent twenty years in grievous sufferings. One day, as the angels had predicted, he became healthy. In church, the monk took leave of all the brethren and partook in the Holy Mysteries. Then, having bowed down before the grave of Abba Anthony, Saint Pimen indicated the place for his burial, and he himself carried his bed there. Pointing to those buried there, one after the other of the monks, he predicted that the brethren would find one buried in the schema to be without it since this monk had led a life unworthy of it. Another monk, who had been buried without the schema, would be found clothed in it after death since he had greatly desired it during his life, and he was worthy. Then Saint Pimen lay down upon his bed and fell asleep in the Lord. The brethren buried him with great honor, glorifying God. After the death of Saint Pimen, the brethren were persuaded of the truth of his words. On the day of Saint Pimen\u2019s repose, three fiery columns appeared over the trapeza and moved atop the church.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cCOFFEE and\u2026\u201d<\/strong> Thank you to the Pokotylo family for hosting \u201cCoffee and\u2026\u201d last Sunday!
