Saint Alexandru of Basarabia, a beacon of faith during turbulent times, faced relentless persecution under the communist regime. Accused of anti-Soviet activities for his sermons and pastoral work, he was arrested and subjected to brutal interrogations. Despite immense pressure, he refused to renounce his faith or betray his flock. His unwavering commitment to Christ led to his martyrdom in prison. His final act was blessing his tormentors, embodying true Christian love and forgiveness.

Holy Saint Alexandru, pray to God for us!
