One of the lesser known saints we have featured in our SAINTS lineup is St. Moses the Strong.
He also goes by the titles of, "St. Moses the Black" or "St. Moses the Ethiopian." He is NOT Moses from the Book of Exodus, but a 4th century monk.
His life is similar to that of St. Augustine (whose feast he shares), as both were sinners turned saint.
Forced into slavery at an early age, St. Moses felt powerless, a feeling that he tried to overcome through his physical strength. It led him to seek power over others, stealing from everyone who crossed his path.
Then one day he discovered a community of poor monks in the Egyptian desert who possessed no material treasures. The encounter shocked St. Moses to the core, opening his heart up to a different way of life, where strength was found in self-surrender and sacrifice.
Learn about the remarkable life of St. Moses the Strong, a 4th century saint whose story continues to inspire many around the world, showing how, with God’s grace, it is possible to go from sinner to saint.
