Let us remember Venerable John Iacob the Romanian, who left behind worldly honors to embrace monasticism. After laboring in Romanian monasteries, he journeyed to the Holy Land. For years he lived in the wilderness near the Jordan River, then withdrew to Saint George Hozevit Monastery. Despite the hardships, he never abandoned his flock in spirit, serving as a bridge between worlds through his prayers and writings. Holy John, pray to God for us.
