In the 18th century, Saint Venerable Martyr Gherasim of Tismana, a humble monk, stood firm against the Austro-Hungarian authorities' attempts to convert Orthodox Christians to Catholicism. He was captured, tortured, and ultimately beheaded for refusing to renounce his faith. His unwavering devotion and martyrdom solidified his place as a protector of #Orthodoxy and a symbol of resistance against religious oppression.
Let us pray to Saint Gherasim to intercede for us, that we may have the strength to remain steadfast in our #faith and defend the truth. #Saints #Martyr #Prayer #Christian
