Theodore, Abbot of Khandzta

Venerable Theodore (ninth-⁠tenth centuries) was abbot of the Khandzta Monastery, in Klarjeti. He is venerated as a saint in the Synaxis of the Venerable Fathers and Mothers of Klarjeti of the Orthodox Church of Georgia, canonized in October 2002 (by other data in 2003); he is commemorated on 5 October (old calendar).

The Life of Venerable Gregory of Khandzta says that Theodore was the nephew of Mtskhueda, the son of Abbot Arsen. He is held to be the abbot of Khandzta at the time the Life of Gregory was written, in 951, to whom the author, George Merchule, refers, together with the abbot's brother John. No other details of his life survive.
