Visarion Toța was born in 1900 in a small Romanian village and became a monk at Sihăstria Monastery. He was arrested in 1948 for his faith and spent years in communist prisons, enduring torture and hardship. He never gave up his belief in #GodIsGood. Even in the face of death, he offered spiritual guidance and comfort to fellow prisoners. He died in 1964 due to the brutal conditions of his imprisonment.

Venerable Visarion, intercede for us before Christ! #saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Tradition
