Saint Nektarios Monastery

Welcome

Saint Nektarios Monastery was founded and established in January 1999 by the reverend Elder Ephraim with the blessing of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. The purpose of the Monastery is to provide a spiritual setting wherein worship and doxology of the Holy Trinity can take place ceaselessly by the resident monks; to be a luminous example of virtue and holy conduct for the faithful; and to preserve the sacred traditions of the Orthodox Church and transmit them to the ensuing generations.

The Repose of Saint Nektarios

As he neared the end of his earthly life, Saint Nektarios developed an infection of the bladder, which he endured patiently and with thanksgiving to God for fifteen consecutive months. Despite the unbearable pain, he initially did not want to receive any medical treatment; however, he eventually agreed after much pressure from the nuns. Thus, accompanied by two nuns, he went to Athens and was admitted to the Areteion Hospital, where he remained for more than fifty days, during which he ceaselessly praised, thanked, and glorified God.
