Saint Nektarios (1846-1920), known in the world as Anastasios Kefalas, was born into a poor family in Silybria, Thrace, and from a young age worked hard in Constantinople, while maintaining his deep desire for knowledge and spiritual life. After becoming a monk and studying theology in Athens, he was ordained Metropolitan of Pentapolis in Alexandria, from where he was expelled due to slander and envy. Returning to Greece, he took on duties in the Church (mainly as Director of the Rizareio School) and in 1904 founded the Monastery of the Holy Trinity in Aegina, where he retired and lived his last years in humility. Despite his severe physical illness (prostate cancer), he remained a model of patience and faith, taking his last breath on November 8, 1920. The Church declared him a Saint in 1961, and today he is honored as a miraculous protector of the weak, the sick, and as the "Saint of Patience."
