Born in Moldavia, he journeyed to Mount Athos seeking spiritual guidance. After years of asceticism, he felt called to serve the Romanian people. Returning home, he established a monastery at Calapodești, becoming a beacon of faith and charity. He was known for his profound humility, healing gifts, and unwavering dedication to the poor. Monks flocked to him. His prayers and guidance transformed many lives, leading them to Christ.

Lord, through the prayers of #VenerableAntipa, grant us strength in our faith and compassion for all.
