Philotheia, a child of faith, met a martyr's end at the tender age of twelve. Her stepmother, consumed by jealousy and rage, struck her down while Philotheia was bringing food to her father in the fields. Her relics, enshrined at the monastery in Curtea de Argeș, exude miraculous fragrance, drawing pilgrims seeking solace and healing.

Holy #Philotheia, intercede for us that we may emulate your unwavering love and devotion.
