Ioannes 132 was priest of Hagios Sergios of Germia (or, perhaps, at Germia); in 787 he attended the Second Council of Nikaia (the Seventh Ecumenical Council) and is attested at the fourth session, on 1 October 787, when he subscribed the statements read out from the Fathers in support of the veneration of icons: Mansi XIII 153 (Ἰωάννης πρεσβύτερος τοῦ ἁγίου Σεργίου τῶν Γερμίων; the Latin version, at XIII 154, calls him "Ioannes presbyter sancti Sergii Germion"). He probably attended other sessions of the Council also; see Gregorios 45. Although a priest, he is listed among the hegoumenoi and monks and his name follows that of Sergios 19, hegoumenos of the monastery of Germia.
