St. Maximus the New
Saint Maximus the New was the son of King Stephen of Serbia
(December 10). He became a monk at Manasija, but had to flee into a
mountainous region of Romania because of the Moslems. He was consecrated
as Metropolitan of Wallachia. After a life of great spiritual
endeavors, he fell asleep in the Lord on January 18, 1516 in a monastery
he had founded.
