Life
Holy Venerable Martyr Carterius of Avnezh (called in the sources Cassian of Avnezh) was the cellarer (steward) of a monastery in the Avnezh region and received the crown of martyrdom in 1392. He is commemorated in the Synaxes of the Saints of Vologda and of Radonezh.
On the same day, 15 June, and in the same year, 1392, the igumen Gregory of Avnezh, also a venerable martyr, is commemorated, and the council's list places the two together. The calendar of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church gives 15 June (old style). No other details of his life survive in the sources consulted.
