Elder Ephraim Katounakiotis 56 p

Ο Papa Ephraim the Katounakiotis was born in 1912 in Ampelochori, Thebes.

His father's name was Ioannis Papanikitas and his mother Victoria.

The Elder had the secular name Evangelos. He finished High School but the Grace of God closed to Evangelos the secular doors of restoration.

Saint Elder Joseph the Hesychast gave a plan of a quiet life to Pope Ephraim,

To cultivate the wish Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, to have a prison of the senses and led him to the purification of the heart and the divine enlightenment.

Pope-Ephraim with his blessing Elder Joseph indulged in Philokalia of the Holy Niptics and received the advice of the Neptic Fathers for his struggle.

He did not read psychiatry books, or cultural readings for spiritual demonstrations in the salons, nor was he afraid that secular circles would call him a fundamentalist.

In 1973 he died Hieromonk Nikiforos the Elder of Pope Ephraim.
