Desert Mothers
The Desert Mothers were female Christian ascetics living in the desert of Egypt, Israel, and Syria in the 4th and 5th centuries AD.
They typically lived in the monastic communities that began forming during that time, though sometimes they lived as hermits.
Other women from that era who influenced the early ascetic or monastic tradition while living outside the desert are also described as Desert Mothers.
The Desert Fathers are much more well known because most of the early lives of the saints" were written by men for a male monastic audience" — the occasional stories about the Desert Mothers come from the early Desert Fathers and their biographers.
Many desert women had leadership roles within the Christian community.
The" Apophthegmata Patrum", or" Sayings of the Desert Fathers", includes forty- seven sayings that are actually attributed to the Desert Mothers.
There are several chapters dedicated to the Desert Mothers in the" Lausiac History" by Palladius, who mentions 2,975 women living in the desert.
Other sources include the various stories told over the years about the lives of saints of that era, traditionally called" vitaelife").
The lives of twelve female desert saints are described in Book I of" Vitae PatrumLives of the Fathers").

Desert Fathers
The Desert Fathers( along with Desert Mothers) were early Christian hermits, ascetics, and monks who lived mainly in the Scetes desert of Egypt beginning around the third century AD.
The" Apophthegmata Patrum" is a collection of the wisdom of some of the early desert monks and nuns, in print as" Sayings of the Desert Fathers".
The most well known was Anthony the Great, who moved to the desert in AD 270–271 and became known as both the father and founder of desert monasticism.
By the time Anthony died in AD 356, thousands of monks and nuns had been drawn to living in the desert following Anthony's example—his biographer, Athanasius of Alexandria, wrote that" the desert had become a city."
The Desert Fathers had a major influence on the development of Christianity.
The desert monastic communities that grew out of the informal gathering of hermit monks became the model for Christian monasticism.
The eastern monastic tradition at Mount Athos and the western Rule of Saint Benedict both were strongly influenced by the traditions that began in the desert.
All of the monastic revivals of the Middle Ages looked to the desert for inspiration and guidance.
Much of Eastern Christian spirituality, including the Hesychast movement, had its roots in the practices of the Desert Fathers.
Even religious renewals such as the German evangelicals and Pietists in Pennsylvania, the" Devotio Moderna" movement, and the Methodist Revival in England are seen by modern scholars as being influenced by the Desert Fathers.
