Venerable Dimitrie the New of Basarabi, a humble shepherd, lived in 13th-century Wallachia. One day, while he was praying, he was captured by Tatars and martyred for refusing to renounce his faith. His body was found incorrupt and was a source of miraculous healings.

O Holy #Dimitrie, intercede for us before God. Pray that He grants us strength to remain steadfast in our #faith and blesses all those who seek your intercession. Pray for the #suffering, the #persecuted, and for the healing of our land. #Orthodox #Saints #Prayer
