Calinic of Cernica, born in Bucharest, displayed a deep love for monastic life early on. He entered Cernica Monastery as a novice and quickly became known for his dedication to prayer, fasting, and obedience. Later, as bishop, he focused on restoring churches and monasteries, printing religious books, and supporting the poor. His tireless efforts revitalized spiritual life in his diocese.

Lord, inspire us by the example of Calinic, strengthen our commitment to prayer, service, and spreading your word!
