Joseph the Confessor, Bishop of Maramureș, stood firm against communist oppression. Arrested in 1958 for his faith, he endured imprisonment, torture, and hard labor, refusing to renounce Christ. His unwavering spirit inspired fellow prisoners and revealed God's grace amidst suffering. Released in 1964, he lived under surveillance, yet secretly ministered to his flock until his death. Let us pray that his courage strengthens us to witness Christ in a world that often denies Him. #OrthodoxChristian #Confessor #Maramureș #Faith #Courage
