During the Communist regime in Romania, Priest John of Galeş was known for his unwavering faith and courage. He openly criticized the regime's oppression, offering solace and spiritual guidance to those persecuted. Once, when the secret police raided his church, seeking to arrest him, he calmly continued the service, shielding his parishioners. He faced imprisonment and torture, but never renounced his faith, becoming a symbol of resistance. Pray that Fr. John's example inspires us to stand firm in our beliefs, even in the face of adversity. #OrthodoxChristian #Faith #Courage #Romania #Perseverance
