Saint Gregentios was filled with the grace of God and possessed the gifts of healing and wonderworking even in his youth. By the grace of God , he accomplished his mission with much zeal and great fruition, bringing into bosom of the Church a great number of the Jews of that area. He reposed peacefully in the year 552 AD, and his feast day is celebrated annually on December 19 .
