Venerable Theodora, once a noblewoman, embraced solitude in the Carpathian Mountains after a profound spiritual awakening. Abandoning worldly comforts, she sought refuge in a secluded cave near Sihla Monastery, enduring harsh conditions with unwavering faith. For years, she lived as a hermit, dedicating herself to prayer and fasting, facing trials with immense fortitude. Through divine providence, a monk discovered her, offering her the Holy Eucharist, nourishing her soul until her peaceful repose.

Pray to #Theodora, that her life may inspire us all to seek God amidst life's wildernesses.
