Our Holy Father Eustratius.
Commemorated January 9 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion
From the Prologue
A native of Tarsus, he was a great ascetic and man of prayer. During seventy-five years of monastic life, he never lay on his left side to sleep, but always on his right. In church, he repeated over to himself throughout the service: 'Lord, have mercy'. He died at the age of 95.
