8 ноября. Житие - Димитрий Цилибинский, преподобный - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

The Monk Demetrius was the founder of the Tsilibinskaya Arkhangelsk Hermitage on the Vychegda River, 28 versts from Yarensk. The Tsilibinsk Hermitage was founded under St. Stephen of Perm (+ 1396; Comm. 26 April/9 May) with the aim of serving as a shelter for preachers of Christianity who worked in the Zyryansk villages along Vychegda. Rev. Demetrius was one of St. Stephen's closest disciples and zealous assistants in spreading the Orthodox faith among rude idolaters. It is known from the life of the saint that, in addition to many clerics invited by him from Ustyug, he brought up and educated quite a few assistants from the very Zyryans, who, as their fellow tribesmen, who were well acquainted with the customs and customs of their people and spoke the same language with them, could to be more capable of missionary work, to acquire the confidence of the people more quickly, and to act more successfully on the simple hearts of the wild sons of nature. Probably, from among these natural Zyrian clergymen was the Monk Hieromonk Demetrius. He tried to imitate his mentor in everything, which is why he dedicated the temple in the desert, arranged by him, to the same Archangel Michael, as in Ust-Vym. Having dug a cave under the temple, the Monk Demetrius labored in it for a long time in fasting and prayer, and left it only to perform church services and to preach the word of God in the surrounding villages. When and how he died is unknown. His body was laid near the church, a chapel was subsequently built over his grave, and a tomb was placed in it with the image of the monk on its upper board. It can be seen from the ancient record and the church synodic that the chapel and the tomb were built earlier than 7173 (1666), his memory was reverently revered by the people as a saint of God. The memory of the Monk Demetrius is celebrated locally on October 26/November 8, probably in memory of his namesake.
