Ghelasie, once a skilled woodcarver, abandoned his craft for monastic life, seeking deeper meaning in #faith. At Râmeț Monastery, his humility and wisdom shone, leading to his election as Archbishop of Transylvania amidst turbulent times for the #church. He championed unity and tradition, facing political pressures with unwavering resolve, proving that true strength lies in spiritual conviction. Lord, may his example inspire us to live authentically and stand firm in our #OrthodoxChristian beliefs. #saints #prayer #Tradition
