When he was 24 years old, Feofil entered a monastery in Kiev. He lived quietly as a novice and was a model of humility and obedience. After he was ordained a priest he was given the prestigious position of steward of his monastery. His work as steward involved meeting people on a regular basis, however, something contrary to what he felt was his calling. He asked to be relieved from his position so that he could live in solitude in the monastery caves. When his request was denied, he adopted the penance of living as a Fool for Christ.
