Life
Venerable Gregory of the Golden Rock (Chrysopetra) came from the lands of the East and settled to struggle at the Golden Rock. He is commemorated on 24 November (new style) in the Greek synaxarion, alongside the venerable Carion, Malchus and Mark the Triglinos.
A verse of the synaxarion says that he was born in Asia and shone with virtues like the sun. No other details of his life have survived.
