Saint Gherasim of Tismana, a monk known for his ascetic life and spiritual guidance, faced a brutal martyrdom. During a period of unrest, invaders sought to plunder the Tismana Monastery. Gherasim refused to reveal the location of the monastery's hidden treasures. Enraged, the invaders tortured and ultimately beheaded him within the monastery walls. His steadfast faith and sacrifice protected the sacred place.
O, Holy #Martyr Gherasim, intercede for us that we may be granted strength to emulate your unwavering devotion.
