St. Mesrop (361 - 440) was a confessor and disciple of St. Nerses the Great of Armenia who was called "the Teacher." Mesrop was born in Taron, Armenia, and became a hermit under St. Nerses the Great. He served as a missionary with St. Isaac the Great and helped compose the Armenian alphabet and translations of the Holy Scriptures. Mesrop, sometimes listed as Mesrob, was proficient in Greek, Syriac, and Persian. He founded schools in Aremenia and Georgia. Mesrop was beloved for his many contributions to Armenian education and died at Valarshapat.


St. Mesrop please pray for the church in Armenia.


Patron of: Armenia.
