Venerable Xenophon of Robika
Saint Xenophon of Robeika was a student of St Barlaam of
Khutyn (+ 1192, November 6). He was the head of the Khutyn monastery
after the igumen Isidore (+1243). Resigning as igumen, St Xenophon
founded the Trinity Monastery on the banks of the Robeika River (not far
from Novgorod). Here he fell asleep in the Lord on June 28, 1262.
