During the Communist regime, Father Sophian was imprisoned for his faith. While incarcerated, he was subjected to brutal tortures aimed at breaking his spirit. Yet, even in the face of immense suffering, he remained steadfast in his beliefs, offering comfort and spiritual guidance to his fellow prisoners. He transformed his prison cell into a place of prayer and witness. His unwavering faith inspired many, becoming a beacon of hope in the darkest of times.

Venerable Father Sophian, pray to God for us, that we may remain faithful, even unto death.
