Ilarion Felea, a Romanian Orthodox priest, stood firm against the communist regime's demands to denounce his faith. Arrested in 1959, he endured torture and imprisonment for his unwavering commitment to Christ. Even in the face of death, he refused to compromise his beliefs, becoming a symbol of resistance and faith. His last words were a prayer for his flock.

Let us pray to #IlarionFelea, asking him to intercede for us, that we too may remain steadfast in our #faith during times of trial. May his example strengthen us to live according to God's will. #PriestMartyr #OrthodoxChristian #PrayerForTheFaithful
