Our Holy Father Nil Sorsky.

Commemorated April 7 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

One of the great fathers of the Russian Church, he was the founder of the monastic 'skete' way of life in Russia. He died peacefully in 1508, and his relics are preserved in the monastery at Sora. His rule of life in the sketes presents a spiritual and pragmatic work of the first order.
