Saint Vendimian, originally from Mizia, came to the blessed Avksentiy in the monastery he founded on Mount Oksii near Chalcedon in his youth. After accepting him, Avksentiy lived for a short time. Upon the death of Avksentiy, Vendimian made a cell a little lower than the cell of the blessed Avksentiy, but after living there for 5 years, he wished to leave due to the difficulty of the place. The Lord Jesus Christ appeared to him and strengthened him, and he lived there for another 37 years, performing miracles during his lifetime. Saint Vendimian reposed around the year 512.
