On March 12, the Orthodox Church commemorates the memory of the Holy Reverend confessor of Theophanes Sigrian. He was an outstanding Byzantine monk, chronicler and icon reader. He was born in Constantinople in a noble family who supported the traditions of icon reading, even during persecution. His father, Isaac, was associated with Emperor Lviv III Isavr, which provided Theophanes with a good education. Theophane chose a monastic life, founded a monastery in the Sigrian region (Asia Minor) and devoted himself to prayer, the rewriting of theological books and spiritual service. He also participated in the seventh Ecumenical Council of 787, which condemned iconoclasm.
