On this day, we remember Martyr Iuliu Veteranul, a Romanian soldier during World War II. Captured by the Soviets and pressured to renounce his faith, Iuliu steadfastly refused. Enduring torture and starvation, he maintained his devotion to God. Before his execution, he prayed, forgiving his tormentors. His unwavering faith in the face of death made him a symbol of resilience.

Let us pray to Martyr Iuliu, asking for his intercession that we may be granted the same courage to uphold our faith amidst adversity.
