Our Holy Father Peter of Galateia.

Commemorated February 1 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

He left his parents' home for the sake of Christ at the age of seven, and hid himself in the desert. There he became so perfect through fasting and prayer that he was able to perform many miracles by the power of the Spirit of God. He entered into the eternal Kingdom of Christ in about 429 at the age of 99.
