Theopiste

Venerable Theopiste was the daughter of Venerable Theodora of Aegina. Her mother was born on the island of Aegina; after her marriage she came to Thessalonica because of Saracen raids. After her husband's death she became a nun and entered the Monastery of Saint Stephen together with her daughter Theopiste. She lived with great virtue and fell asleep in the year 892.

The two venerable women were once celebrated on 29 August, but their commemoration was moved to 3 August because 29 August is the feast of the Beheading of Saint John the Forerunner. Theopiste is commemorated on 3 August, in the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style), together with her mother.
