Ghelasie, once a skilled wood sculptor, abandoned worldly acclaim to embrace monasticism at Râmeț. Known for his profound humility and dedication to prayer, he later became Archbishop of #Transylvania. A shepherd of souls, he tirelessly defended the #Orthodox faith against encroaching influences, always choosing spiritual integrity over political expediency. May his example inspire us to seek inner transformation and unwavering devotion. Lord, grant us strength to emulate Ghelasie’s courage and wisdom.
