A member of the Hypsistarians, a distinct Jewish-pagan sect worshiping Hypsistos, the "Most High" God, Gregory was convinced to convert to Christianity by his wife Nonna in 325, who would pray for him daily. Both Gregory and Nonna came from wealthy families, and Gregory was able to personally finance the construction of a church in the region of Cappadocia. In 328, Gregory was selected as bishop of Nazianzus, a position he held until his death. Three children were born to Gregory and Nonna, all of whom are saints of the Church. One daughter, Saint Gorgonia (Feb. 23), was outlived by her parents by only a year, and was lauded in the eulogy given by her brother Gregory as a model Christian wife. Their younger son, Caesarius of Nazianzus (Mar. 9), studied in Caesarea Mazaca and at Alexandria and became a physician. He served in Constantinople as the court physician for both Constantius II and Julian the Apostate, and died in 368. Their elder son, also named Gregory (Jan. 25), served alongside his father first as a priest, and then as co-adjutor. Gregory of Nazianzus the Younger would later become the Patriarch of Constantinople and ranked among the great Three Hierarchs of the Church (Jan. 30) and an esteemed Theologian. Nonna outlived her husband and two of her children, dying in 374. Terms and conditions of greekartstore1 Dear CustomersOur store policy is to ship your order as soon as possible.
