Дейфер (VI век) — святой игумен из Бодфари. День памяти — 7 марта.

Святой Дейфер (Deifer) был валлийцем. Он был основателем и настоятелем монастыря Бодфари (Bodfari), что во Флинтшире.

Тропарь, глас 6

Desiring to serve God in monastic solitude,/

thou didst establish thyself at Bodfari, O Father Deifer,/

where attracted by thy piety,/

many were drawn to embrace the life of ascetic poverty./

May thine example be ever before us/

that we lose not our vision of eternal blessedness.

Кондак, глас 2

The tawdry worthlessness of our indiscipline/

contrasts starkly with the heights of thy virtue, O Father Deifer,/

therefore we earnestly entreat thee to pray for us,/

that amending our lives/

we may more worthily worship Christ our God and Saviour.
