This year, the 22nd Sunday after Pentecost marks the commemoration of St. Nestor the Chronicler, of the Caves, in the Near Caves (+1114) and St. Nestor the Illiterate, of the Caves, in the Far Caves (XIV).

The All-Night Vigil (and on the day of the feast, the Divine Liturgy) in the church of St. Agapit of the Caves was led by the administrator of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, Metropolitan Anthony of Borispol and Brovary, in concelebration with the clergy of the Lavra.

The brethren’s services in the monastery’s Church of the Exaltation of the Cross were led by the monastery’s treasurer, Archimandrite Nestor, who shares the saint’s name.
