Visarion Toia was a Romanian monk who stood firm against communist oppression, refusing to compromise his faith. Arrested in 1948, he endured torture and imprisonment for his beliefs. Despite immense pressure, he never renounced his vows or his devotion to #Christ. His unwavering spirit inspired many to resist the regime's attempts to suppress religious freedom. Visarion died in prison, a martyr for his faith, canonized as a saint in 1990.
O, Venerable Visarion, pray to God for us, that we may have the strength to stand for truth. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Confessor #Romania #Prayer
