Saint Gregory the Illuminator
Gregory is said to be son of Anak, a Parthian prince of Persian origin.
Kusev killed Anak and all his family, whom he feared as possible
contender to the throne. The little Gregory was saved from the massacre
by a Christian lady who adopted him as a son and brought him up as a
Christian in Caesarea. He became a monk and dedicated his life to spread
the Gospel.
