Born in the 11th century in Epivates (near modern-day Istanbul), she was renowned for her extreme asceticism. Legend states that she gave away her wealth to the poor and retreated into the Jordanian desert (hence the "Cross in the Desert") to live a hermitic life. Her relics eventually traveled to Constantinople, then to Tirnovo, and finally to Belgrade and Romania. For Serbs, she is the protector of women, the sick, and the poor.

Legal Sources (Recommended):

• St. Anthony the Great (father of desert monasticism)? Anthony battles demons visibly; Petka battles despair invisibly.
• St. Mary of Egypt (repentant prostitute turned ascetic)? Mary’s story is dramatic, sensational. Petka’s is quiet, quotidian – no lions, no flying over the Jordan.
• St. Simeon Stylites (pillar-dweller)? Simeon seeks height; Petka seeks depth – her cave is a womb of prayer.
