Venerable George of Cernica Monastery, guide of monastics and beacon of piety, lived a life of profound spiritual dedication. After embracing monasticism at Căldărușani Monastery, his thirst for deeper communion with God led him to the skete of Cernica. There, he joined Paisie Velicicovschi, becoming a pivotal figure in the monastic renewal movement. His wisdom and humility attracted numerous disciples, leading to Cernica's transformation into a vibrant center of spiritual learning. Despite facing challenges, including a period of exile, he remained steadfast in his faith, leaving behind a legacy of monastic excellence.

O Holy George, intercede for us before the throne of grace, that we may emulate your virtues and find strength in our spiritual journey.
