| | Anthony the Great - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Saint Anthony prophesied about the persecution that was about to happen to the church and the control of the heretics over it, the church victory and its return to its formal glory, and the end of the age. |  | | Lord God, You gave Saint Anthony the Abbott the grace of serving in the desert in prayer with You. |  | | When Saint Macarius visited Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony clothed him with the monk's garb, and foretold him what would be of him. |

| | St. Anthony the Great of Egypt |
 | | Anthony went on to tell the Greek philosophers that their arguments would never be as strong as faith. |  | | Anthony's Cave (magharah), where he lived as a hermit, is a 2 km hike from the monastery and 680 m. |  | | Anthony always told those who came to visit him that the key to the ascetic life was perseverance, not to think proudly, "We've lived an ascetic life for a long time" but treat each day as if it were the beginning. |

 | | St Anthony died peacefully in the year 356, at age 105, and he was buried in the desert by his disciples. |  | | Knowing that the name of St Anthony was venerated by all the Church, the Arians said that he adhered to their heretical teaching. |  | | Soon St Anthony's cell was surrounded by several monasteries, and the saint acted as a father and guide to their inhabitants, giving spiritual instruction to all who came into the desert seeking salvation. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Anthony |
 | | Long before this it had been usual for Christians to practice asceticism, abstain from marriage and exercising themselves in self-denial, fasting, prayer, and works of piety; but this they had done in the midst of their families, and without leaving house or home. |  | | And yet it is abundantly evident that from the middle of the fourth century throughout Egypt, as elsewhere, and among the Pachomian monks themselves, St Anthony was looked upon as the founder and father of Christian monachism. |  | | This was the form of monastic life in the deserts of Nitria and Scete, as portrayed by Palladius and Cassian. |

Only on two other saints — John Chrysostom and Gregory the Theologian — is such a great honor bestowed. |

| | Discerner of Spirits — St. Anthony the Great of Egypt |
 | | The vicious net was craftily woven, but the Saint recognized it as the handiwork of his adversary and tore it apart by means of intense prayer and vigilance, deflecting any and all disturbing thoughts before they took hold in his mind. |  | | Nor did he, in his humility, ascribe his spiritual gifts to his own achievements, but exhorted those who benefited by his prayers to thank God Who is the source and cause of all that is good. |  | | The severity of his labors and his accumulated virtues astonished the older ascetics, but Anthony never thought about his spiritual progress and regarded each day a s the beginning of his spiritual journey, thereby shielding himself from pride and vainglory. |

 | | The vision of Saint Anthony remains the same: to be a community rooted in the worship and service of Almighty God, and to be a visible and faithful witness to the Orthodox Faith in our city. |  | | From the beginning, Saint Anthony was culturally diverse, reaching out to those from Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Slavic roots, as well as welcoming into the Faith those from Western Christian heritage. |  | | Even though we are located in an extremely transient area, with people entering and leaving the community, God has richly blessed us with love, stability and unity. |

 | | Anthony the Great was born in Egypt in the year 250 (circa) of noble and wealthy parents, who brought him up in the Christian faith. |  | | This involved a number of recluses being under the direction of a teacher — "abba," in Jewish meaning "father," and living individually, either in huts or caves, committing themselves to prayer, fasting and labor. |  | | After Anthony had lived in isolation for 20 years, some of his friends found out his whereabouts and arrived there with the intention of settling near him. |
