Venerable #Antipa of Calapodești, a Romanian monk on #Athos, yearned for solitude but was thrust into leadership, guiding his brethren with wisdom and love. He healed the sick with prayer, including a paralyzed man who walked again after Antipa's blessing. His humility and dedication drew many to the monastic life.

O, Venerable Antipa, pray to God for us!
