Born in 1888, Elijah Iorest became Metropolitan of Ardeal during a tumultuous period. Amidst Communist oppression, he fearlessly defended the Orthodox faith, offering solace and guidance to his flock. A story tells of him subtly blessing a congregation during a parade celebrating the Communist regime, turning a moment of forced obedience into an act of spiritual defiance. May his example inspire us to remain steadfast in our faith, even in the face of adversity.
Lord, help us to remain steadfast in the face of adversity!
