Our Righteous Father Nicon “Repent Ye.”

Saint Nicon, the son of a certain noble, was from Armenia. Forsaking his parents and homeland, he passed throughout the parts of the East, crying to all men, “Repent ye,” because of which he received this name. Finally, he came to Lacedaemonia of the Peloponnesus, where he built a church in honor of Christ our Saviour. After having dwelt there many years in solitude, and having converted many from paganism, he departed to the Lord about the end of the ninth century.

The above account from our Great Horologion represents what the Greek text says of him. From other sources, however, it seems that Saint Nicon was from Pontus, not Armenia, and was born at the end of tenth century.

The above account is taken from the Great Horologion,
