Saint Agapios was alone with his Elder in the Vatopedi Skete of Kolitsos. According to Gerasimos Smyrnakis, the area was named after the Elder of Saint Agapios, the quiet Koletios. When the saint once went down to the beach for a specific job, he was captured by pirates. Saint Nicodemus of Mount Athos mentions how they were Saracens and how their saint changed and baptized them.
