Venerable Nicodim of Tismana, illuminate our paths! Born in Macedonia, Nicodim embraced monasticism at Hilandar Monastery on Mount Athos. Drawn to asceticism, he sought deeper solitude in the Romanian lands. Around 1375, he established Tismana Monastery, a beacon of faith and culture during tumultuous times. His wisdom attracted disciples, and his prayers worked miracles. He reposed peacefully, leaving behind a legacy of spiritual guidance and monastic excellence. O, Holy Nicodim, intercede for us!
