Confessor Sava Brancovici, Metropolitan of Ardeal, stood firm against Calvinist pressures in 17th-century Transylvania, defending Orthodox faith. Imprisoned in 1683 for refusing to convert or allow the Orthodox to unite with Calvinists, he endured hardship with unwavering resolve. His example strengthened the Orthodox community during persecution.

Lord, by the prayers of Saint Sava, fortify our resolve to defend the truth.
