During a time of persecution, Metropolitan Elijah Iorest refused to convert to Catholicism, even when imprisoned and tortured. He remained steadfast in his Orthodox faith, and ultimately died in captivity for his beliefs. His unwavering commitment to Orthodoxy, even in the face of death, is a testament to his deep faith and love for Christ. May Confessor Elijah Iorest, through his holy prayers, intercede for us before God, that we too may remain strong in our faith.
