Confessor Sava Brancovici, Metropolitan of Ardeal, stood firm against the tide of Calvinist proselytization in 17th-century Transylvania. Despite immense pressure and threats from Prince Apafi, who favored Calvinism, Sava refused to renounce the Orthodox faith or allow the appropriation of Orthodox churches. His unwavering faith led to his imprisonment and eventual exile, yet he remained a beacon of Orthodoxy, encouraging his flock to hold fast to their beliefs. Let us pray that his steadfast spirit inspires us to defend the true faith today.
