Evdokimos

Evdokimos of Xenophontos was a monk of the Monastery of Xenophontos on Mount Athos in the twentieth century, venerated by the faithful without synodal canonization. It is told of him that, after a vision, he said the Jesus Prayer unceasingly for six years and had much peace in his soul. He said he had not been able to help the monastery spiritually, since he knew little learning, but he had helped it in labour, beyond his strength. He knew toil and honoured those who toil, and so he commemorated with all his heart those who serve and have served in the holy monastery. The source we have is only one part of a series of stories, and his dates of birth and death are not known.
