On this day, we remember Martyr Oprea of Săliştea, who, in 1769, stood firm in his Orthodox faith against forced conversion. Offered wealth and status to renounce Christ, he chose torture and death rather than betray his Lord. He declared, "I was born Orthodox and I will die Orthodox!" His unwavering resolve inspires us to defend our beliefs and remain steadfast in the face of adversity.

Holy Martyr Oprea, pray to God for us!
