Abouna Yostos el antony is a very blessed saint. He is also very recent. I have been lucky to visit the Monastery of St. Anthony in Egypt to take the blessings of his relics.
He was a saint in St. Anthony's monastery in the mid 1900's. He was always silent and was an ascetic meaning he could travel anywhere in seconds. A movie was made regarding his life story. It's on google video.
He is a monk who was a novice in the monastery of St. Paul and he was kikd out from there after he broke the bell. he went to St. Anthoys monastery were he became a monk and lived a life of silence and solitude. he used to only bathe once a year and no one ever said that incense smelt better than him. He died i think in the 1970s. Pope Shenouda said of him that he was a forth century monk living int the 20th century. dats his brief life story and honestly that is all i know about him. there was a movie made about him
