[[Saint Theodore Trichinas ]] was born into a wealthy yet pious family in Constantinople. He denounced all earthly and material riches and dedicated his life to [[Christ ]] in a [[monastery ]] in the Imperial City. Having given away all that he had to the poor, and himself not owning anything, he clothed himself not in clothes but a rough hair garment all his life, and hence his name. He reposed at the end of the fourth or early fifth centuries. His memory is celebrated on [[April 20]].
St Joseph the Hymnographer composed a canon in his honour.
