In the Romanian village of Tismana, Saint Gherasim stood firm for his faith amidst religious tensions. When foreign invaders demanded he renounce his beliefs and embrace their doctrines, Gherasim refused to betray Christ. He was subjected to torture and ultimately beheaded for his unwavering devotion. Even in death, his face shone with divine light, a testament to his martyrdom.

Lord, may the prayers of Saint Gherasim intercede for us, strengthening our resolve to defend the Holy #OrthodoxChristian faith and to witness your love to those of other beliefs. #Saints #Martyr #Prayer #RomanianOrthodox #Faith
