Gregoras 11 was a layman (λαϊκός), possibly a laybrother, and the addressee of four letters from Theodore the Stoudite (Theodoros 15), written between 810 and 819: Theod. Stud., Epp. 84, p. 205; 191, pp. 315-316; 295, p. 434; 399, pp. 554-555 (all addressed Γρηγορᾷ λαϊκῷ). He built a church which was ignored by Theodoros 15 because it had been consecrated by his Moechianist opponents: Theod. Stud., Ep. 49, pp. 139-144 (τὴν ἐκκλησίαν τοῦ κυρίου Γρηγορᾶ τοῦ τέκνου ἡμῶν: p. 144, line 145). In 818 Gregoras 11 had been arrested and imprisoned in the imperial palace for his support for the iconophiles; he is addressed as ὁμολογητὰ τοῦ Χριστοῦ: Theod. Stud., Ep. 399, p. 554, line 2.
