Life

Saint Ephraim Chorny is commemorated as a hermit of Solovki, in the synaxes of the saints of Novgorod and of Solovki.

The calendar of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, the only source consulted, gives only the name, the byname "Chorny" ("the Black"), the rank of hermit and the synaxes; no years or details of his life survive.
