He served as a hierodeacon (deacon priest) when in 1608 he and a few others joined Saint Job of Manyava to follow him in very strict ascetic practices, and to become monks in seclusion and wilderness of the Carpathian mountains. He was chosen among others by Saint Job for his zeal and humility. With God's blessing and help of Christian community, the monks built a mountain monastery (skete) and on the Feast of Exaltation of the Holy Cross the monastery church was consecrated in 1612.In all the works, Theodosius served as assistant to St. Job and when the last was leaving for a pilgrimage the Kyiv Caves Monastery, he entrusted him to be the head of the community by saying "Be our shepherd and spiritual father, you ought to be hegumen, I will be assisting you as long as I live".In the end of 1621, 70 years old Job fell sick and died on 29 December 1621. Theodosius headed the monastery for 8 years after his death. In 1628, he took part in the First Synod of Kyivan metropoly after the Brest Union. The synod was summoned by the Orthodox metropolitan of Kyiv and Halych Job Boretsky in the Golden Domed Saint Michael's monastery in Kyiv.Venerable Theodosius lived as angel giving a great example of sanctity and virtue. Rumours about his strict and virtous living spread through the Carpathians, Galicia, Volynia and Bukovyna, Moldova and Romania. Theodosius' spiritual authority and the strict monastic rules of his community brought about much of respect on the part of other Orthodox monasteries in the entire region. At the church synod of 1628, hegumen Thodosius and his Manayva monastic community were chosen to be the heading monastery (prot) in charge over 556 other monasteries in western Ukraine and Moldova (among the subordinated monasteries were Suceava and Neamt monasteries).Theodosius' contemporary saint Peter Mohyla, the metropolitan of Kyiv was writing: "If you wish to see God´s servants in human likeness, go to the Carpathians, where 200 angels in human flesh dedicated their lives to God by their service".Having contributed much to the welfare of Manyava Skete and many other monasteries, venerable Theodosius died in 1629 and was buried next to his teacher Job. The large stone tombstone with an Orthodox cross engraved upon it, that was covering their graves is kept and venerated in Manyava Skete."@en }
