Her memory is celebrated on July 27.
Osia Anthousa was the daughter of the iconoclast king Constantine of Kopronymos and his third wife Eudokia. She was born into palace glory and splendor, but she asked another for the pleasure and comfort of her soul.In vain her king father (741 – 775 AD) wanted to marry her to a young man who had all the advantages of birth, beauty and wealth. She brought to her heart the deep sadness that her father was an enemy of icons and did not want a husband who had the same thoughts as him. So she remained celibate and used her time in works of mercy and charity.After her father’s death, she distributed her possessions to the poor, charities and temples, and was made a nun by Patriarch Tarasius, although she received many pleas and was pressured by the most pious Augusta Irene of Athens (797 – 802 AD) to stay together. her and to co-reign. In the monastery her life was ascetic, full of humility and love.In the year 809 AD and at the age of 52 she left this world, fully worthy of the amaranth crown of the eternal kingdom, the modest virgin, who despised the false glimmers and the illusory honors of the temporal kingdoms of the earth.
