Venerable

Venerable Abraham and Copri of Pechenga founded the Spasskaya Pustyn in 1492 on the Pechenga River, in the Gryazovets district, 21 versts from Vologda. They had to endure many hardships and labors to establish a monastery in a desolate place, without any means, and to bring it to proper order. The blessed laborers spared no effort, zealously striving for the Lord until their very end.
