The Orthodox male St. John the Theologian Savvo-Krypetsky monastery of the Pskov diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church carries out its activities with the blessing of Metropolitan Tikhon (Shevkunov) of Pskov and Porkhovsky. The monastic life of the Savvo-Krypetsk monastery has more than 565 years of history. Already in the sixteenth century, a life and an icon with the life of the Monk Sava of Krypetsky appeared thanks to the works of the Pskov hagiographer and hieromonk of the Krypetsk monastery, hieromonk Varlaam (presbyter Vasily). At present, the Krypetsky Monastery is the successor of the ancient monastic Athonite traditions with the richest and most ancient history. We try to share this invaluable wealth of traditions with our pilgrims and pilgrims.
