Venerable Nicodim of Tismana, a beacon of the Romanian Orthodox Church, is celebrated for his profound asceticism. His life was marked by unwavering dedication to prayer, and the building of monasteries. He even faced down a raiding party, whose leader he converted. He is believed to have performed miracles.

In a time of great need, when the local people were suffering from a terrible drought, Nicodim prayed fervently for rain. Legend says that as he prayed the skies opened up and blessed rainfall came.

Holy Venerable Nicodim, pray to God for us!
