Dosoftei, a beacon of faith in 17th-century Moldavia, shone as a scholar, poet, and translator. Facing immense political turmoil, he defended the Orthodox faith against foreign powers. He established the first printing press in Iasi, spreading knowledge in the Romanian language, and translated numerous religious texts, including the Psalter, making scripture accessible to the people. May his dedication to literacy and faith inspire us to seek truth and defend our spiritual heritage.

Let us pray for his intercession to guide us in preserving our language and culture, and to remain steadfast in our faith.
