The Moscow elder, in the world, father Alexy Mechev, was born on March 17, 1859 in a pious family of a regent of the Cathedral of the Chudovsky Choir.
His father, Alexei Ivanovich Mecheev, the son of Archpriest Kolomensky district, was saved from death in the cold on a cold winter night by St. Filaret, Metropolitan of Moscow and Kolomensky. Among the boys from the families of the clergy of the Moscow diocese, selected by the criterion of sufficient musicality, he was brought in the late evening to Troitsky Lane at the Metropolitan Compound. When the children had dinner, Vladyka Metropolitan suddenly alarmed, quickly dressed and went out to inspect the arrived convoy. In some sledges, he found a sleeping boy left there by oversight. Seeing the Providence of God in this, Metropolitan Filaret noted the special attention and care of the child he had saved, constantly took care of him, and later on his family
