Saint Chariton


Saint Chariton the Confessor (Greek: Αγιος Χαρίτων; 3rd century, Iconium, Asia Minor - 350, Judaean desert) is a Christian saint. His remembrance day is September 28.

In 275, during a pilgrimage from Jerusalem, Chariton was abducted by bandits and brought to a cave in the Farra Valley. Tradition states that his abductors died by drinking wine that was poisoned by a snake. Chariton decided to remain a hermit in the cave after this miraculous death of his abductors.
